You know, why have gas prices gone up? Could that be because of the virus itself, as well?

How would the virus make gas prices go up?

Last year, gas prices dropped because of the virus when people stopped driving and buying gas.

Jimmy Carter had a thousand excuses for his inflation and energy crisis.

The simple answer was—he was a *&^%-up.

Here we go again....

Every once in a great while the price of something moves up or down due to supply and demand factors, which are many and varied.

I know, I know, virtually never.

Somebody told her the gas pumps were infected with a virus & she assumed COVID.

no matter what is going on libs and socialists have reasons for raising taxes and why prices are going up

if economy is good: prices go up because of demand, and if its taxes, raising them because of workload and processing increases, etc

if economy bad: prices going up because not enough people are buying and so theynhave to raise prices, if its taxes, they are being raised because of ‘unexpected’ shortfalls of projected revenue, govt can’t be without your money

if economy is the neutral: prices go up because inflation is always occurring, everything naturally goes up, if its taxes, they raise them because still need to fix infrastructure and ‘match’ inflation

I guess this could mean that racism, white supremacy, (fill in the blank) is also caused by the Wuhanflu.

Grabhome: “Everything is tied together.”

Wish she had expounded on that a little more. On the other hand, if you don’t know how to answer the question, blame it on the virus.

I feel a “malaise” coming on... not an illness caused by viruses, but by another kind of difficult to eradicate scourge upon humanity. That is, of course, liberal stupidity.

What a brilliant insight. I wonder if she got this from that powerhouse of economics knowledge, AOC.
