Because fuel prices are set mostly by oil speculators who invest or not in the oil and gas industry. When Biden said one of the 1st things on his agenda was to do everything he could to kill the fossil fuel industry, oil speculators quit investing. It's not just getting the oil out of the ground, you have to have permits to find it, you have to have new permits to produce it, you have to have the infrastructure to move it, and to process it. He's made producing a gallon of gasoline extremely harder, shutting down exploration and drilling permits, shutting down pipelines, etc., all of which causes the price to go up. The President sets the tone. Trumps tone was Drill Baby Drill and Biden's tone is Kill Fossil Fuels.
