下面就是美国两党和背后财团争斗的显现。
如果能一起抛弃分歧，美国国内占通胀增幅大部分的石油产品价格根本不会到今天的地步。
共和党和背后的石油财团等着看拜登和民主党笑话呢。

KEY POINTS
President Joe Biden on Wednesday called on U.S. oil refining companies to produce more, saying they need to help alleviate the burden of high prices on consumers.
“At a time of war – historically high refinery profit margins being passed directly onto American families are not acceptable,” the president said in a letter to oil companies including Exxon Mobil and Chevron.
″[C]ompanies must take immediate actions to increase the supply of gasoline, diesel, and other refined product,” the letter added.
Biden’s call comes as sky-high energy costs add to inflationary concerns across the economy. The national average for a gallon of gas crossed $5 over the weekend for the first time on record, according to AAA.
The national average now stands at $5.014, which is 54 cents more than a month ago, and $1.94 more than last year.
Refiners can’t just ramp up output, with utilization rates already above 90%. Additionally, some refiners are now being reconfigured to make alternate products like biofuel.
Refining capacity has dropped since the pandemic took hold, which is a factor in the rapid advance of fuel prices. Demand has returned as economies restart and people travel once again, but supply remains tight.
Biden said that his administration is prepared to use “all reasonable and appropriate Federal Government tools and emergency authorities to increase refinery capacity and output in the near term.”
Biden noted in his letter that the refining shortage is a “global challenge and global concern,” with around 3 million barrels per day of global capacity offline since the start of the pandemic.
Still, he pointed to the “unprecedented disconnect between the price of oil and the price of gas.”
“Since the beginning of the year, refiners’ margins for refining gasoline and diesel have tripled, and are currently at their highest levels ever recorded,” he said.
Biden noted that the last time oil was trading at $120 per barrel the average price of gas at the pump was about $4.25 per gallon.
Oil prices fell after Biden’s letter was released, with West Texas Intermediate, the U.S. benchmark, recently trading down more than 1% at $117.71.
The president’s letter was also addressed to global giants BP and Shell, as well as refiners Marathon Petroleum, Valero Energy and Phillips 66. Shares of Exxon, Chevron and the refiners were all down slightly in premarket trading.
“The crunch that families are facing deserves immediate action. Your companies need to work with my Administration to bring forward concrete, near-term solutions that address the crisis,” Biden said.
“There is nothing left to ramp up,” he said.
Kilduff noted that no new refineries have been built in decades, but existing units have been expanded. Prior to the pandemic, there had been excess refining capacity, which pressured profits.
“Years of sanctions on Venezuela and Iran, and now Russia, has more than contributed to the current situation,” he said.
The industry says the administration’s policies are to blame for the surge in prices.
“While we appreciate the opportunity to open increased dialogue with the White House, the administration’s misguided policy agenda shifting away from domestic oil and natural gas have compounded inflationary pressures and added headwinds to companies’ daily efforts to meet growing energy needs while reducing emissions,” Mike Sommers, president and CEO of the American Petroleum Institute, said Wednesday.
The industry group sent a letter to Biden on Tuesday outlining 10 steps the administration and Congress should take to tackle the energy crisis, including lifting development restrictions on federal lands and waters and accelerating LNG exports.
Biden’s action Wednesday is the latest move by the administration to show it’s taking action against rampant inflation. Higher prices have become a headache for the White House ahead of November’s midterm elections.
Biden has repeatedly called higher prices at the pump Putin’s tax, while also calling on U.S. producers to raise output. The messaging is at odds with the White House’s prior focus on reducing the U.S. fossil fuel output.
The administration has said corporations are prioritizing financial returns at the expense of Americans.
“Exxon made more money than God this year,” Biden said Friday.

中国出面了，看来已经跟美国达成了一定共识。 wait and see:
www.cnbc.com
Chinese President Xi Jinping told Russian President Vladimir Putin in a phone call that Kyiv and Moscow “should push for a proper settlement” in the ongoing war in Ukraine, according to a Chinese readout of the call.
Xi told Putin that “China has always proceeded from the historical latitude and right and wrong of the Ukraine issue, made judgments independently, actively promoted world peace, and promoted the stability of the global economic order,” according to the readout.
Xi’s call with Putin follows multiple high-level discussions between the Biden administration and Beijing.

”All parties should push for a proper settlement of the Ukraine crisis in a responsible manner. China is willing to continue to play its due role in this regard,” according to the readout.
The two leaders also discussed a range of security issues and areas of mutual concern where Beijing and Moscow can cooperate. Putin told Xi that he also opposes any forces that “interefere in China’s internal affairs,” under which he included Xinjiang, Hong Kong and Taiwan.

消息很多啊
形势是，乌军主力10多万人被困在乌东，打下去吧，国本要被打没了，乌克兰面临灭国；不打撤了吧，乌东就没了。北约准备放弃了，秘书长发话了，和平不是没有机会，就看乌克兰准备割让多少土地让俄罗斯满意，俄罗斯方面一贯的作风，越往后打，我要的就越多；
另一方面，西方的战略是，军事上给他放血，经济上是全方位绞杀，同时警告中国不要给他补血，这样让俄罗斯血竭而亡。结果俄罗斯自从开战以来三个月，仅能源涨价就赚了930亿美元，比战争消耗的还多，这放的是欧洲的血了（怎么有这么蠢的战略？）
前几天香会上，记者追问魏凤和，中国到底有没有援助俄罗斯，魏凤和说没有任何物质援助，魏凤和心里想，傻X问题，越打越赚，用得着劳资援助吗？

中国最近刚刚超过德国，成为俄国石油最大的进口国，战争开始的前两个月一直是德国进口俄国石油产品最多。美国NASA刚为与俄国合作航天项目，刚给俄国付了卢布。
美国，欧洲都没少给俄国输血。
Germany slips behind China as top importer of Russian energy
Germany, which was the biggest importer of Russian fossil fuels during the first two months of the war, slipped to second place behind China, which has purchased some €12.6-billion (US$13-billion) worth of energy from Moscow.
Germany slips behind China as top importer of Russian energy
Centre for Research on Energy and Clean Air said Russia received about €93-billion in revenue for the sale of oil, natural gas and coal since Feb. 24

Russia's ruble hit its strongest level in 7 years despite massive sanctions. Here's why
The ruble has actually gotten so strong that Russia's central bank is trying to weaken it, fearing that this will make their exports less competitive.
卢布创2015年原油油价最高点以来的新高，制裁？
The ruble’s stunning surge in the following months is being cited by the Kremlin as “proof” that Western sanctions aren’t working.
虽然欧美有这种那种理论，起码普京对于他国内民众可以宣传胜利
Russia is the world’s largest exporter of gas and the second-largest exporter of oil. Its primary customer? The European Union, which has been buying billions of dollars worth of Russian energy per week while simultaneously trying to punish it with sanctions.
That’s put the EU in an awkward spot – it has now sent exponentially more money to Russia in oil, gas and coal purchases than it has sent Ukraine in aid, which has helped fill the Kremlin’s war chest.
