U.S.—Service stations across the country have begun widening their signs in preparation for higher gas prices, sources confirmed Thursday.
The wider signs allow for prices up to eight digits long, "an absolute necessity" for the Biden presidency, according to local fuel station franchise owners.
"We're gonna need a bigger sign," gas station owner Amir Wallenfeld said in an interview with a local news station in Los Angeles. "This should get us through the first few years of the Biden presidency, though we're looking for a bigger one should he be reelected in 2024, should he live that long."

First, our dollar becomes the Belgian franc, then the old Meixcan Peso, then the Venezuelan Bolivar, and finally, the Zimbabwe Dollar.
Gonna need some really, really long signs over the next 20 years.
DANG!

It’s those jobs for ex-oil workers that he was talking about.

Tell me again why Biden is a great president.
Other than not being Trump. Any other reason?

We’re gonna need a smaller boat because of these gas prices. But . . that means the shark wins and the middle class loses . . again.

Not necessary. Just move the decimal point.
$2.99 becomes $29.9. And there is room for one more, $299.
So, we are good for at least 2 more weeks.

Time to switch measurement to metric.
And to list prices without the taxes included.

Heck, gasoline in my part of Texas has already gone up about 40 Cents/gallon since Birdbrain took over. Hey, maybe he won’t be able to find enough av gas to fly AF1 around the country. Oh, I forget. Just like his campaign his Presidency is being ran from the White House Basement.
To: antidemoncrat
Up over $0.75 a gallon for me with some stations asking even $0.50 higher!

We're gonna blow through $4/gal like it wasn't even there by summer. $5/gal by mid-2022. And that's not taking inflation into account. With inflation, maybe sooner.
Get rid of all that fossil fuel!!
Gotta make the GREEN NUDE EEL a reality NOW, Baby!!!
