    That’s less than a quarter of what we waste annually on fossil fuel subsidies. And this is a president whose administration considers record oil production to be an accomplishment instead of a disgrace.

        Record oil production is not progress.

            Your article is from 3 years ago and does not give Trump credit for the record oil drilling that the Biden administration considers an accomplishment.

              It’s three years old, because it’s a list of regulations that Trump repealed. He hasn’t been president since, so there’s no reason to update. Trump repealed Obama-era regulations that inhibited big oil in favor of zero-emission alternatives. That has a positive impact on oil production in the years that follow, hence the record production.

                And Biden did nothing at all to revert Trump’s changes?

                  He has been, but it’s much easier and faster to repeal legislation than it is to enact it. Trump took us back a decade in his first two years in office.

                    Cool. Let’s repeal oil subsidies.
