Hey, Biden Media Shills, Gas Prices Have Risen Every Month Under His Administration
NewsBusters ^ | 8/17/2021 | Joseph Vazquez

The terrible effects of President Joe Biden’s war on fossil fuels are taking a serious toll on the nation as the left-wing media have consistently attempted to defend him from bad press.

U.S. Energy Information Administration data revealed that gas prices per gallon were at about $2.42 when former President Donald Trump left office. Under Biden, prices have increased every single month to a discomforting $3.23, a 33.47 percent increase. The gas data follow a hot Consumer Price Index (CPI) and Producer Price Index (PPI), both key inflation indicators released by the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS). The New York Post reported in a recent story on the CPI data that gasoline prices had risen “2.4 percent from May and is now up almost 42 percent from a year ago."

I paid 3.20 a gallon, regular gas, in Harrisburg PA 10 days ago.

New green deal is just getting started. 5 bucks a gallon is on the horizon.

I made 3 x 4 peel and stick labels with a picture of crazy Joe pointing his finger. On it I have in big red letters, “I DID THIS”. I peel them off and stick it right next to the fuel price on the pump. My neighbors, friends etc use them.

It’s on purpose for several reasons.
They don’t want the “unwashed masses” having the freedom to travel...price it out of their reach.
They want the “unwashed masses” forced to move into urban areas where they’re much easier to control and kill.
They want to force those than can afford to travel into EV vehicles...you know, common man, it’s for the environment. The Law of Conservation of Energy? What’s that???? Must be some white man thing.
They LOVE the tax revenue. There’s never been a tax these bassturds didn’t like.
They generally LOVE the feel of their boots pressing on the neck of the little man....it makes feel important, that they’ve done “something”. Look at me...I’m in power.
Libs always think that they’re smarter and better than everyone else, especially the unwashed masses” when the reality is...they’re dumber than a box of rocks.

This sucks but it’s gonna be much worse for me when they do the same thing to nat gas to force us to put in heat pumps.

Biden and his Green New Deal zealots think this is a good thing. They want the elimination of carbon-based energy. Good news for electric cars. Of course, you will need to increase electricity production. How? Windmills and solar. LOL.

Great Idea!

LOL. Thanks. So easy if you have an app that designs cards, labels etc, invitations etc. Buy labels, design them with the design app. Find pic of Biden, insert in project, text “I did this” and print. The size I used gives ten on an Avery label page. (So that is ten Biden tank fill ups). LOL

When the price of fuel goes up then all the goods that are hauled around go up. See the higher prices of everything!
