EIA Says U.S. Consumers Will Pay 30% More for NatGas This Winter

In the U.S. Energy Information Administration's latest Winter Fuels Outlook, the EIA forecasts that U.S. households that primarily use natural gas for space heating will spend an average of $746 on heating this winter (October-March), which is $172, or 30%, more than last year. Natural gas is the primary heating fuel for nearly half (48%) of U.S. homes. This situation of high prices for American consumers is NOT because we are exporting LNG. It's happening for a variety of reasons that can be boiled down into two main causes: (1) not enough pipelines, and (2) pressure by woke, pimple-faced Millennial investors to divest from oil and gas companies, meaning lack of capital and lack of will on the part of drillers to drill more wells.
