That's great. Just think if Trump was in office you would have thousands more, but we have the guy who showers with his daughter and trixie. What a great country!

People shouldn't live in Chicago and drive luxury cars if they can't afford premium gas. At the very least, they should keep their mouth shut and reflect on their privilege.
The main thing we produce in Pakistan costs us $15 a unit and includes shipping. There’s a factory outside of kc that has the equipment to make. This year they would be $70 a unit. I do agree with you but I’m not sure consumers would be ready for that shock. I know our customer (small businesses) would not be able to handle that cost increase
To paraphrase Hillary Clinton, we can’t worry about every undercapitalized business.
Let's get this done!
Something like 85 percent of the products in Walmart are made in china. The other thing people don’t get is that the infrastructure for so much of this stuff is already overseas. So now are you not only bringing it back where you have regs and work comp and higher wages etc you have to again reinvest here. And who is to say people want these shitty jobs. Immigrants maybe
There is a push to get the supply chain closer to north/South America. Not enough population to do the jobs is coming. Education system isn’t geared to handle the skill jobs needed. There is a ton of money to be made in the trades. The Big universities will be competing even more for students.
I was being a bit of a shitposter with my paraphrase of Hillary. Simple solutions are long gone if your goal is not to burn down large portions of the economy.
What about regular?
| Current Avg. | $4.345 | |||
| Yesterday Avg. | $4.349 | |||
| Week Ago Avg. | $4.359 | |||
| Month Ago Avg. | $4.405 | |||
| Year Ago Avg. | $4.452 |
Regular is obviously for the poors and is more in line with what we're told to conform to and get comfortable with if we don't like othis economy.
If gas gets too expensive for people, they should either buy an EV or learn to code. #bootstraps
Not according to this article. Way at the bottom it discusses prices dropping 0.8% yoy Dec 2023. Maybe I misread.
True, it’s a global market. However, US has been the leading producer according to EIA since 2018. Regardless, the TFG will promise to drill, drill, drill and, whether that actually happens or not or makes a difference, his followers hear that and believe it alone will lower gas prices. Facts really don’t matter.

When he says,”cheap oil” I just laugh. Oil companies choose when to pump. They drill most of the leases but don’t complete some until they have too. Record profits without spending is the dream for them. Some people still don’t believe we are producing more than ever.
Joe Biden just found Murt's sweet spot - cheaper premium gas. What remains to be seen is if this is enough to buy his vote.
I got a question maybe you can answer. Is the reserve oil in reserve for emergency situations? If it is then is it wise to release it? Why not just open up drilling in America?
I'm not the best person to answer that, but I do believe the oil reserves are meant partially for emergencies, but also to prevent disruptions in supply.
This is gas not oil. We have both in reserve. I’m still buying gas at $3 bucks a gallon. Gas is not high. It’s state and local taxes. We are breaking production records and big oil has record profits. They don’t want cheaper oil. Pretty sure this is the first time this has been done. (Releasing gas).

No, silly, it's for buying votes. Duh.
Sure, Pete. You've had 3 years to put in infrastructure and have produced only a 'handful'.
Convenient that by 2030, the present Administration will be long gone and..... Oh well! Guess things weren't as shovel ready as we thought.
And the dupes keep on believing.

There’s a direct correlation of where a gay man puts his peter, and where Biden places this peter.
It always turns to USA taking it in the rump.
Biden says “ahh you think under performers suck now, hold my white claw”.
Free market my @$$. If anyone thinks the rest aren’t in on it…..????
Yeah! Let’s just move or sell our car for cheaper ones because a clueless moron is ruining this country.
How do you drive with all those tears in your eyes?
Exactly how are you ruining this country?
Let’s see how your butt buddy Biden is. He’s letting any dumb ****s in the country, he caused prices of everything to go up, he’s backing Hamas supporting students to take over campus buildings, he’s letting China, Russia, Iran and Hamas to do whatever the **** they want and he constructed a floating dock to get aid supplies to Palestine that has been a disaster, he’s basically paying peoples student loans off. Do you want me to continue, moron?
Yes, please do ...
Watching maga-billies have mental breakdowns is quite entertaining.
