The Price Of Gasoline Is Going Up And Up

Yet under Biden we are producing more oil than at any time under trump, and are the largest producer in the world.

Did you know that?

What year was gas $2.12 under trump? Were any global events happening that would decrease demand or was that just a blatantly intellectually dishonest statement?

 

Democracy is in the worst shape it has ever been in during my life.

• Fewer people trust our elections because of lies and misinformation from a failed administration
• Fewer people support our government (USSC has taken the biggest dive)
• States are moving to suppress the will of voters more and more through gerrymandering

Perhaps you think that’s democracy, but only because you believe it benefits you and your political ideology. There is a reason we lose global positions each year in Democracy and freedom rankings.

 

Thankfully we're a constitutional republic, and not a democracy, as a democracy is an awful form of government.

 

A constitutional republic is a form of a democracy

But I have no doubt that you prefer a system that lets the extremist minority impose their views on the rest of the nation.

 

Based on oil futures, which are short term contracts, which Biden oil related policy had a similar effect to a production cut?

 

Very good question.

I read your post after I’ve completed my research…..average price of gasoline, post oil market crash, source; EIA

Here’s another snake oil statement;

“Biden inherited an annual inflation rate of 1.4%”

Well, of course! The oil market crash/BLS energy index significantly reduced 2020’s inflation rate.

Partisan politics worst enemy; HONESTY!

 

Whole Foods has ALWAYS been expensive. Everyone knows that. It's kind of a thing for the upper middle class. They are real popular in gentrified hoods. Maybe this "influencer" has to put away a few more apples.

 

Oil price are largely driven by speculative trading.

Agree?

 

Can you hear yourself? He tried to block the peaceful transfer of power and install himself as the unelected prez. Once more, he tried to block the peaceful transfer of power and install himself as the unelected prez.

If he had succeeded democracy would have been in shambles.

 

I remember trying to explain this to people who tried to claim canceling the building of the Keystone pipeline caused gas prices to increase.

 

wow.....bloody hell that's cheap.....it's about USD7.50 here in the UK......

 

$1.25 for a Honey Crisp apple at Shaw's Supermarket. Whole Foods has ALWAYS been more expensive. Hence why I don't shop there.

 

Believing the prez has control over the price of gas is a common misconception held predominantly by Repubs...............among dozens of other misconceptions.

 

I thought conservative call those “Tax cut”.

Oh I see. When DEMS pass the bill, it is "Kickback", but when GOP passes the bill, it is " Tax cut".

 

Oh they are not mine or Hilary’s comment. They are actually concern of Trump’s own Secretary of Defense and Chief of Staff.


"When I joined the military, some 50 years ago, I swore an oath to support and defend the Constitution," Mattis wrote in a denouncement published in The Atlantic. "Never did I dream that troops taking that same oath would be ordered under any circumstance to violate the Constitutional rights of their fellow citizens — much less to provide a bizarre photo op for the elected commander-in-chief, with military leadership standing alongside." Former Defense Secretary Jim Mattis


Kelly told Sciutto, “Every incoming president is shocked that they actually have so little power without going to the Congress, which is a good thing. It’s Civics 101, separation of powers, three equal branches of government.”


“But in his case, he was shocked that he didn’t have dictatorial-type powers to send U.S. forces places or to move money around within the budget,” the quote continued. “And he looked at Putin and Xi and that nutcase in North Korea as people who were like him in terms of being a tough guy.”


“He truly believed, when he brought us generals in, that we would be loyal — that we would do anything he wanted us to do,” John F Kelly

 

You were correct!

 

Yea, twist words. You can do better. If you bought a Tesla, you got a $7,000 tax credit. That is not a real tax cut. It’s like the $1,500 “rebate” we got from GM when we recently bought a car.

 

I wouldn’t say largely, but speculators have often raised oil prices above supply and demand fundamentals.

 

Aha , another interesting word “rebate”. When DEMS passes the bill, it is either kickback or rebate but when GOP passes the bill it is tax cut or capital investment tax credit. Got it.

 

If that is what you know, then what you know is wrong.

Last year under Biden, America produced more oil than in any year in its history.

Two newspapers I never read -- The Washington Post and The New York Times.

 

Don't worry. It's only transitory.

 

Yeah, and so is Biden. Thank God.

 

I can make up stuff too,

This won't matter anymore soon because Dictator Trump will control how many miles we can drive. if we don't sign a NDA and a loyalty pledge, we get no miles

 

Every time we gas up or buy food we remember who is the superior president.
