Because of all the “Building Back Better” and the rest of the economic utopia the Biden presidency has brought with it, many people have less money in their pockets than ever before. Part of that is energy costs.
Electricity is up:
As for natural gas, CNN reported three weeks ago that “it will still cost way more to keep warm than it did last winter:
Heating your home this winter likely won’t burn quite as big a hole in your wallet as initially forecast.
Both the US Energy Information Administration and the National Energy Assistance Directors Association this month lowered their cost estimates for heating with natural gas and oil. That’s thanks to a combination of lower energy prices and a milder-than-expected winter.
That’s the good news.
The bad news is that it will still cost way more to keep warm than it did last winter. That’s driving a surge in the number of people applying for federal heating assistance — but not everyone will be able to get the help they need, as there’s less federal funding to distribute this year.
So, with all that in mind, allow Kamala Harris to explain how President Biden has saved you enough money on heating and electric bills to take an extra family vacation this year:

This has to be a new low for a politician hoping everybody’s incredibly stupid.

As the saying goes, you can lie to people about a lot of things but not how much money they have. They keep trying though.
