New York, New England Rationing Heating Oil
Newsmax ^ | October 25, 2022 | Jack Gournell

Heating oil stockpiles are at a third of normal levels for this time of year, causing suppliers to begin rationing in New York and New England, the Daily Mail reports.

The northeast heavily relies on heating oil, which is similar to diesel fuel, for home heating, leading to fears of shortages as winter approaches. Ninety percent of the country heats with other methods.

Heating oil wholesalers have started limiting allocations to retail suppliers in the area, Chris Herb, president of the Connecticut Energy Marketers Association, told Bloomberg News.

"His mind went from this to the thought of the old man of Sulphur Creek. He could see him quite clearly, warm and comfortable, and smoking a pipe. “You were right, old fellow. You were right,” he murmured to the old man of Sulphur Creek."

Heard on the Chris Salcedo radio program this a.m. that the U.S. currently has a 25-day supply of diesel fuel.

You foolishly presume Democrat voters can think and learn. History tells us otherwise.

Correct.

AND, of course, the rest of the country is subsidizing home heating oil so those in New York and New England will have lower heating bills this winter.

On what planet? Home heating oil here in NH is well over $5/gallon.

That doesn’t sound very subsidized to me.

A exclusively democrat voting region.

Nonsense. NH is republican in all branches of its state government.

Hassan only won last time because of cheating.

I believe Biden credited his unprecedented vote fraud system to Obama before him.

While true, that statement has to be understood in context. US refineries are constantly producing diesel and are capable of producing at greater than our average consumption rate.

We are not going to run dry any time soon.

How is NYC going to heat those immigrant tents they just built? Looks pretty big inside the tent and I would hate to heat them.

Sorry for the occasional conservative up there, but yes the rest deserve to get what they voted for.

Could be a bull market for firewood, chainsaws, and log splitters, not to mention wood stoves.

Running out of diesel is scary bad.

We will see how quickly we turn into a third world hellhole if we do.

Not having toilet paper will be the least of our worries...

They find out global warming is a good thing in the middle of winter.
