“The natural gas tax is an ill-conceived piece of legislation that will clearly raise the cost of energy to U.S. consumers, and at the same time, place Texas independent oil and gas companies, and tens of thousands of wells in the state, in jeopardy,” said Karr Ingham, Texas Alliance of Energy Producers president. “The Texas Alliance of Energy Producers, the voice of independents in Texas, strongly supports its repeal,” Ingham continued, “and we applaud Senator Cruz for his efforts to protect the fabric of the oil and gas industry in Texas." https://lnkd.in/gAz-jipx via E&E News #LNG #natgas #naturalgas #oil #economy #energy #txenergy #environment #climate #oilandgas #TedCruz #Senate #methane

Let’s analyze this for just a moment. I’m not just talking about property tax here. On the same ballot as the proposition 13, Texans voted to spend billions of dollars on water infrastructure. Where’s that money coming from? There’s a private company that is looking to process water out of the Gulf of Mexico with pipelines across the state. One of the byproducts in the water is gold. The consumer will pay for the water, while our tax dollars buy the gold. After all, we did approve a proposition granting the governor the right to purchase gold and silver. Fact is, raising taxes of any kind has been deemed political suicide. Not really sure why! Voters are quick to spend government money, but they fail to realize that the government doesn’t actually have any money without taxation. Trump have the biggest tax cut to the low income and middle class by doubling the standard deduction. The career politicians told people not to go back to work unless they were getting at least $15 per hour. What did that do? That put more people above the standard deduction to where they would have to pay taxes. It also created a whirlwind of inflation which gave the government more money in sales tax revenue. I will leave it at that for now, but if anyone wants to discuss this even further, feel free to give me a call.
