No I’m stating his policy and every other presidents policy doesn’t have “as much” impact as people think. He doesn’t drive the bus in oil. He can manipulate it some but opec+ can overcome anything he does. That’s my original argument.
$4.69 A GALLON!!!! WTF!!!!!

100 Ways Biden and the Democrats Have Made it Harder to Produce Oil & Gas
Joe Biden and the leadership of the Democratic party have a plan for American energy: make it harder to produce and more expensive to purchase. Since Biden took office, his administration and Congressional Democrats have taken over 100 actions deliberately designed to make it harder to produce...www.americanenergyalliance.org
okay so now we're getting somewhere. you admit that the policies and actions of biden adn his administration negatively impacted the price of gas. you are just saying that it may not be as much as people think.
AEA? Thier mission statement is funny.not one of these things made gas more expensive in victormyboys' mind. just all pure coincidence and external factors. zero to do with joe. 0 out of 100 to do with joe.

AEA's mission is to enlist and empower energy consumers to encourage policymakers to support free market policies. These policies lead to abundant, affordable, and reliable energy for all Americans.
When was the last time energy was free market?
You are getting too emotional about this. My stance has always been this.
What you get your feelings hurt! Adult talk? That went out the window with Biden. You a Biden voter? If so, you are without excuse. So either come back with a worthy reply OR tell us you are a Biden voter. As far as gas goes I'm sick and tired of paying Bidens gas prices and every other thing he has dumped on us, utilities, groceries, property tax and every GD time I pay a bill. Jeeeesus you guys defending this idiocy are truly without excuse! Screw this nightmare, and yes every dem brought this on us. Change yourself jerky licker, or continue the insanity its on you.
i'm not emotional about it at all. and as long as that's your stance we both agree. biden's policies contributed to the rise in gas prices. like everything else
the dream team just wants to get to the truth
Now Murt…why is energy so freaking regulated in many states? Follow the money. Indiana is supposed to be a deregulated state but Center point has a massive chokehold for instance. Republican appointed regulators too.
Sure, mcm. It's easy to see how much of a blast your life is. You do this weird carpet-bombing routine every couple of weeks and then you eventually sober up. You're blessed with what sounds like a fantastic daughter and a son who is going to be a blast. Sincerely hope you figure out how to get happy and enjoy them and then one of your businesses hits the jackpot so you can enjoy all the crab legs and rocket fuel your heart desires.
Well no shit. Home values have jumped. Property taxes based on home values are going to rise as well. Sell your McMansion and buy a bungalow. Problem solved.Haven't seen property taxes discussed and how they are skyrocketing as well. Direct result of Biden policies.
Property Taxes Soar 7% Nationwide; Increase Tops 20% In Some States
Property taxes collected on single-family homes in the United States surged almost 7% in 2023, soaring to $363 billion, according to a new report by ATTOM, a real estate data analytics company. That’s almost double the previous year’s increase of 3.6% and the steepest jump in five years., Individwww.forbes.com

7%? I wish.
Mine went up 20% last year. They have doubled in 7 years.
Make fun all you want, bitches. I paid my property taxes in full last week. $48
I had a McDonald's sundae for the first time in 2 years. Not only has the price gone up by $1.25 or so but they are half the size they used to be. I finished it in 3 bites. Ridiculous.
Don’t worry about Murt. He’s a Bitcoiner. He’ll buy a Red Lobster if he wants crab legs.
Sometimes money is no object. When my dad was in the nursing home after his stroke, I would pick up a couple of those when I went to see him. I'd pay bigly to be able to do that one more time.
Per this link, they were $7.79 in 2010 (if I'm comparing apples to apples to get to a $10.39 burger today). That's not a huge jump on a relative scale, is it?
It was like $15 or $16 for a burger/fries/drink there years ago. Only time I've had it last couple years was in the airport in DC and don't think that's a very good price marker
I'm getting old. I see a hamburger on a menu for over $10 and, in front of my daughter, I exclaimed "You've got to be kidding me!" She said "Do you want to leave?" "No, no, honey get what you want."
But damn. I think I can make 4 on the grill for the same price.
All energy producer influence the market. I didn't say the US dictates the market.
Uh oh. Don't tell @Ohio Guy you can eat cheaper by buying at the supermarket.
Looks high. Average for Premium in Missouri is quite a bit lower and about the same as a year ago (around $3.90).
Where do you buy your gas? A car rental agency?
Hung out w a refinery builder at the JDub in Canal this year at Mardi Gras every night after his shift. An executive. Engineer. Three straight nights we would hang before he went to bed, and we went outside to watch parades.
Dude was fed up with this regime. Was a psuedo-union guy before, but said the Bidan administration with it's regulatory nonsense has made it a nightmare to operate.
I didn't ask for details. Didn't lead in any direction.
I trust his opinion on the matter than the partisan guzzlers here.

No, I assume his car needs Premium, but I don't assume he needs to pay $4.69 per gallon for it at a self-serve BP. He's getting ripped off.
The way I always heard it explained by a petroleum rep I know is that, in order to make premium gas, the refiners need to use a more expensive, higher grade of raw petroleum to begin with.
Yup. Market value based on size and age. Of course, they DEpreciate, like a car.
And it's thanks partly to Biden. His bad policies along with low rates in 2021 jacked up home prices. Prices peaked in Dec 2022 and declined in 2023 because home sales slowed with 8% mortgages. Yet property taxes still increased despite declining home values (your recent tax bill is based on 2023 assessment as you probably know).
Now because of Biden's border policy, there will be potentially 5M new renters in the next few years who will then become home buyers. And this is happening when the US is about 5M homes short.
Bidenomics!!!
Sounds like you need to upskill or get a better job if things are so tight.
While I see prices going up, I live well below my means so still able to save thousands each month. 401k for me and 403b for wife both near all time highs. Things are pretty solid with plenty of jobs to be had. Hope things improve for you.
Where are you buying your gas? If your car calls for premium and you cant afford it, you may need to think about a car that takes regular unleaded.

I have a conservative buddy who constantly bitches about his property taxes on his lake house. I tell him "if you can't afford the property taxes, you can't afford the lake house,"
We are going to have to incur some short term “pain”. We have to start an industry correction. Covid changed my opinion
