@hightor,
It's time to admit why.
Biden is either playing the fool (much like Bush Sr and a few other presidents) with his senility act, or is every bit the puppet being handled by committee he seems. I'm not sure it matters, except to realize that we are following the playbook of Big Government.
To deal with supply chain problems (which he caused by upholding mask and vaccine requirements rather than just letting people take breaks if they're sick, resulting in a shortage of workers because people distrust a vaccine forced on them in a creepy way), he decided to start using our own reserve supply of oil. The supply that prevents us from being serfs to other countries in an emergency, part of what protects our sovereignty. He also discontinued Trump's iniative to have an oil pipeline, meaning we aren't getting more. He switched these systems from offline to "more secure" internet-based, which all of a sudden got hacked with ransomware. Rather than hiring one computer expert to fix this, he literally paid the rasomware off. Oh yeah, and his answer to labor shortage will likely be to hire illegal immigrants, who unlike Americans will not have any have any vaccine requirements. So this is really about making American citizens into unemployed welfare collectors, forcing them to get jabbed with a sketchy vaccine (everything from aborted fetuses to genetic engineering to some sort of magnetic tracking device, no thanks), and having a unwelcome third party run all our businesses. If this were a cold or a flu, would this sort of shurdown be necessary? No, it is not "more dangerous than those". The method of treatment is more dangerous. Indoor air pollution is deadly.
This man is either trying to sabotage America himself, or is senile enough to listen to other people with their teleprompters tell him to do it. Regardless, he should have been impeached by now, but unlike Trump's impeach crowd, the average conservative finds it gauche to be screaming "Impeach Him" every five minutes. Anyway, impeachment is really the first step, he also needs to be convicted of treason. Or maybe whoever is giving him words to say.
