We have built a society with infrastructure which is dependent on readily available and affordable fuel. At the same time, the companies which produce the fuel have convinced us they are operating out of patriotism and only need more profits to better demonstrate their concern for their fellow citizens. When the war in Ukraine started, someone said, "Hey, let's float the concept that this war is creating a fuel shortage in North America and use that as an excuse to jack up prices. At the same time, we can export a lot of our supply, at high prices, and say we are doing it to help our allies. This will reduce supply and further raise prices at home. I think we can make it fly. After all, it has been shown most people will believe anything they are told if we can get the MSM behind us. They will get behind us because they love to deliver bad news. We'll have the whole country eating out of our hand. Wecan probably even get the government to pay us to make more money. That's free enterprise!" GD

Then STFU. The rest of your statement is superflous bullshit with no real bearing on this discussion other than to massage your own ego. Suckin' on my titties like you wanted me.

$5.24 diesel at most places. $5.19 at Vitus in Sterling last weekend. Certainly higher on the lower peninsula.

Only problem with your statement their is no drilling going on federal lands. Sure yo boy Joey Biden says there is. But we all know thatβs far from the truth.

Oil companies are not going to make investments when the future is risky. Look at the money put into the Keystone pipeline to be canceled. The Democrats have said they are going to destroy coal and fossil fuels. They oil companies believe them. Hasbeen

Well at least were finding out who our real friends are, and what family members we no longer need to send happy holiday cards to. Joey will be hog tied come January, and not long after bad orange man returns. Then things will be looking up again. We just need to remember who our real friends are, and never again let the others forget that, regardless as to who they are.

1/3 of Americans are democrats. 1/3 of Americans are republicans. 1/3 of Americans just care about gas price.
Go to the pumps. Look around. Say out loud, "This is getting expensive!" 1/3 of those pumping will expound on their anger.
Coupons for gasoline rationing were printed but were never actually used during the 1979 crisis. On July 15, 1979, President Carter outlined his plans to reduce oil imports and improve energy efficiency in his "Crisis of Confidence" speech (sometimes known as the "malaise" speech).

Someone say fuel bill ? , Farm .. couple thousand gallon a year give or take ....plus heavy increase in fertilizer , net wrap , wrap plastic for wet hay ect ..but that ain't nothing .. Compared to the 7000gal fuel every couple weeks when the excavation company is running full-tilt ......4 dozers , 4 excavators, 2 scrapers , 2 skid steers, grader,..that fuels not including dump trucks & lowboys ..... Let's add hydraulic oil, engine oil ... Hell at least tire are getting cheaper .... Oops [bleep] WRONG.... Another Factor people have to consider for the farmers. All the fuel burn in the excavation company for myself it goes on to the hourly rate of machines and bids for jobs at ultimately gets passed on to the finished product in my cases is usually subdivisions and houses. But all the fuel burn on a farm is not passed on that easily. Very small percentage of farm products go to market with the producer actually setting the price. Lots of things are happening to work on help changing that and cut out some middlemen but the fact still remains.

Went down to around 345 350 about 3 or 4 weeks ago around here. Now 399 to 419.
Sure am glad we are selling 180 million barrels of oil out of strayegic reserve to other countries at a huge profit margin to "ease up" on our prices here in the good ole usa...
Honk for Joey....
Wonder where all that profit money is going???? π€«π€«π€«π€«π€« Hunter has a standard of living that needs to be maintained.

FUQK JOE BIDEN!!! π‘π‘π‘ Exxon/Mobil got to be loving life! Texas gets a big shot in the arm, whenever oil prices go up! Drill baby Drill! Good for the economy! Right? Money, money, money. That's all you pukes think about. To hell with the poor folks who cant afford to go fishing or drive to work and still eat with inflated food prices. Oh, you thought all you lowlife, low IQ dimocraps were unemployed and on food stamps. Well, surprise, surprise, your NWO corksucking buds dont have everyone living off us Republicans yet. BTW, hazard a stupid guess as to how many poor people will starve in the world after your buds are successful in driving corn and wheat prices up? As your buds say, if you cant get nuclear war or toxic vaccines or man made viruses to reduce the Earths population you can always do as Stalin did and starve them.
