Well quite. At no point has banning fracking been an offical Biden policy position. You have to creatively interpret offhand remarks to make the point. Imagine if we took every Trump tweet as policy, we'd have banned wind turbines by now because on Planet Trump they cause cancer.

Apart from anything else the majority of fracking happens on private land and would require an Act of Congress to make it illegal, which would be unlikley to make it past the polluting lobby. The Biden energy plan is clear, they will not issue any new permits on federal land, so the inital impact of a Biden win on the industry would be negligible, you alarmist, you.

AK, the US Constitution is designed to prevent large populous states from lording it over the smaller ones. If Biden wins, there could be two new states, and Presidential elections by popular vote. The USA would become a one-party country.

( I know, it more or less is one now ).

I’m fully aware of the US electoral system thank you very much.
In attempting to prevent large states from “lording it over smaller ones” the US abandoned awarding the presidency to the most popular candidate (not just in 2016, but several times in the past). Not only does this system throw up presidents who fail to win the popular vote, but it also means that the votes of larger states are worth less than those of small states.

Winner doesn’t take all.

Phil. Look at a map of US Federal Lands in the Wikipedia entry for that topic and repeat that a fracking ban would have negligible impact. As an example, recently the USGS identified the Permian Basin as the repository of an extraordinary quantity of oil in tight reservoirs that can only be obtained by fracking. Guess what, much of that Basin lies beneath Federal Land in New Mexico.

AK, the European Council has the same principle. FPTP in the UK does go some way towards keeping out some of the loopies.

If Biden loses the popular vote, it will be the fault of "alt-right" sites spreading smears about the Biden family.

I'm surprised that you don't support a candidate with a sensible energy policy, who avoids getting into wars and stands up to the CCP with his economic policy.

I understand that yesterday's ST had an article on polling in the US. Here's some info on what is happening on the ground :

The proposed 'ban' is actually a commitment not to grant any new leases or permits for fracking on federal lands - which only covers around 10% of US fracking (0.1% in the swing state of Pennsylvania, where JB has a 5-point lead). Existing operations will continue. So the effect of the policy become greater over time as permits elapse and are not renewed - but the initial impact would be small, as I posted.

fracking has to continue because we need a transition (there is) no rationale to eliminate fracking right now.

JB - CNN Town Hall.

Biden claimed Solyndra would create jobs and long-term growth.

$535,000,000 of tax money down the toilet and rushed through by Biden evading due diligence.

Mrs Jobs Journal likely wouldn't print this these days.

Biden's Energy Policy ? hell, yeah...

Yeah, right.

And whoosh, there go the goalposts, from what Biden said to what Harris said. Harris has opposed fracking in the past, however she now supports the Biden Climate/Energy plan. That would be the best place to look for a detailed, nuanced description of what the Biden/Harris policy actually is, rather than a montage of deceptively edited clips from the Trump campaign.

Moving on, how about a dive into

Explains why Trump wasn't so keen on JCPOA. A Biden win would see it back on track in no time.

Charming stuff

And we wouldn't want that would we?
