Biden’s 100,000 jobs loss

From a country boy perspective, it appears that Joe Biden’ explosion of executive orders in his first few days in office are designed to overwhelm American citizens and cause countrywide misery.

One seems to to see will cause.

If citizens - conditioned by pandemic lockdowns - accept them without full bore resistance, the new president will happily whip out a few hundred more, hoping for the same result - the basic transformation of a free nation into a tyrannical left-wing state. (sort of a satellite state of Red China)

Biden is a perfect puppet for Chinese President Xi, who owns him entirely due to the contributions the Chinese have made to the Biden family fortune, thanks to son Hunter’s venture into nefarious international wheeler dealing under the aegis of Papa Joe’s political influence.

The nation is getting a third rerun of the Barack Obama presidency which obviously was intent on gutting the freest, most successful nation in history.

The fun may hit the fan when Biden and his Democrat-Socialist congressional majority start whipping out huge tax increase to pay for the unwise programs imagined by such ignorant Congressional members as juvenile Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.

Among these could be a major increase in fuel prices or taxing individuals on the miles they drive.

Biden’s anti-free enterprise bias orders killed 40,000 American jobs on his first day in office and many more since then.

It’s uncertain if he’s aware of what he’s doing but his leftist handlers (Susan Rice in particular-Obama accolyte) probably do and he doesn’t seem to know or care.

Meanwhile, objections are arising from unexpected sources for the overthrow cartel now in charge of the nation’s swamp.

Unions and native tribes slammed Biden’s canceling the Keystone XL pipeline his first day in office.

Biden killed thousands of union jobs by canceling the construction of the Keystone XL pipeline.

Biden also put a 60-day moratorium on new oil and natural gas leases and drilling permits on federal lands.

Buyer’s remorse came swiftly for many who backed the Democrat ticket.

“Several unions that eagerly endorsed” Biden “are now learning the hard way what it means to support Democrat policies,” Bizpacreview noted in a Jan. 22 report.

It estimated that 10,000 jobs — in addition to the 1,000 already established — would be created in 2021 alone with the construction of the pipeline. A total of 42,000 jobs were expected to be filled once the pipeline was completed.

Teamsters General President Jim Hoffa said in a statement on Jan. 21: “The Teamsters strongly oppose yesterday’s decision, and we would urge the administration to reconsider it. This executive order doesn’t just affect U.S. Teamsters; it hurts our Canadian brothers and sisters as well who work on this project. It will reduce good-paying union jobs that allow workers to provide a middle-class standard ofliving to their families. America needs access to various forms of energy that can keep its economy running in the years ahead. This decision will hurt that effort.”

The Teamsters endorsed Biden.

In revoking the Keystone XL permit, Biden’s team “has chosen to listen to the voices of fringe activists instead of union members and the American consumer on Day 1,” Mark McManus, the president of the United Association of Union Plumbers and Pipefitters said in a statement Thursday.

Biden “has now put thousands of union workers out of work. For the average American family, it means energy costs will go up and communities will no longer see the local investments that come with pipeline construction,” McManus said.

In an August tweet endorsing Biden, the United Association said: “This endorsement is about putting UA members to work and fighting for fair wages and good benefits. Under a Biden Administration, that’s exactly what we’ll get.”

North America’s Building Trades Unions “are deeply disappointed in the decision to cancel the Keystone XL permit,” union president Sean McGarvey said in a statement. “Environmental ideologues have now prevailed, and over a thousand union men and women have been terminated from employment on the project.”

Laborers’ International Union of North America (LIUNA) president Terry O’Sullivan said Wednesday that Biden’s decision to cancel the Keystone XL pipeline permit “is both insulting and disappointing to the thousands of hard-working LIUNA members who will lose good-paying, middle-class family-supporting jobs. By blocking this 100-percent union project, and pandering to environmentaliden’s talk about “unity” extremists, a thousand union jobs will immediately vanish and 10,000 additional jobs will be foregone.”

Meanwhile, leaders in a state Biden was declared the winner of, New Mexico, are now saying they are concerned that Biden’s ban on drilling on public lands will devastate the state’s economy.
