Um, wouldn't normally share this, but your post kind of prompts me to do it: we own oil wells in Texas. Why don't you take your post down to Houston and Dallas and meet with a few folks who have a direct interest in exploration and development to see what they say about the present economic climate for putting capital at risk in this sector. While you're at it, pop in and visit a few of the folks at the Texas Railroad Commission, more specifically their Oil and Gas Division, to hear their thoughts about all of this.
The spineless moron who currently serves as our President, who cannot even stay upright on a Schwinn Ten Speed Bicycle, is very much responsible for this particular mess.X A V I E R

It seems it’s at least partially related to the greater inflationary mess, which I will contend stems from printing trillions of dollars to hand out money to people who often didn’t need it at all. My son and his wife got thousands of dollars when they were earning more than they had ever made in their lives. They cashed the checks, but couldn’t understand why they were getting them.
Now, here’s the part that REALLY pisses me off: they justified the payments by saying they would tax the wealthy more to pay for the handouts. Like punishing successful people was a double bonus. They like to act like being successful means you are evil in some way. There was NO WAY they could tax us that much! The only way to give away free money (a/k/a buy votes) was to PRINT money. Who is surprised that lead to inflation in general?
Rant over, for now.

And yet your kid and his Wife took the money. Or did they take the option to donate back to the treasury? Did anybody?

Great point. Too much free money. A sledgehammer taken to energy independence. And the most embarrassing open border policy ever witnessed in modern society - how about that remarkable number of terrorists who have been arrested at the border YTD. No financial stress with that maneuver.
And that exit out of Afghanistan was just a remarkable piece of work, but that is a different topic and category of ineptitude.X A V I E R

No, i bought a new car. I just looked at it as a refund of overpaying taxes. Your kid is doing great and somebody sent him a windfall and he gladly spent it. Keep up the bitching. OH GOD help ME? My kis is successful but he took money from the government!!! So what.
Colorado sending me another 1500 in August from overpaying state taxes (Tabor). I'll take it.2023 Sweet 16
