I filled up my Tacoma and bought enough to fill up my mower today, $110! This has the makings of a revolutionary summer. $10 gas and $10 bread will put normal, regular, law abiding Americans in the street in a very bad mood.
I personally believe it’s highly possible that petrolium based fuels are really expensive right now because of speculation on the commodity market. I can see it dropping to $30 or less a barrel in the not too distant future. Thanks to the lockdowns, it’s not like we suddenly started using a lot of fuel the last couple of years. And the Ukraine thing is a red herring.
And lastly, it is in the democrats’ interest (the controlling party) to cause prices to drop a lot just before the election.
