I am asking for real. What should we have done that we haven’t done that would have alleviated the gas crisis?

New oil/gas pipelines get shut down by Dem's every single time they come up.

And they came up here and Dems shot it down?

Yep. The Jones Falls Pipeline from PA through GA was shot down & would have provided redundancy. Killed by Maryland dems

They do help private banks all the time. My FBI friend has told me some fun stories. I would hope they are helping here.
