Meanwhile on a frontage road in Austin.

Dont be a spoilsport at the FUD party.
Good keep them there.
This is coinciding with us no longer buying Russian crude. Just noting it.
Oh well, let’s see who suffers more - us or Russia!
The money quote:
“Haynes also said that the airport’s two fuel-storage tanks haven’t been expanded or augmented since it opened in 1999, and as a result, the Austin facility typically holds just one to two days of supply,”
This is a problem of storage capacity not keeping pace with increased demand. This not a case of global shortage as hinted early in the article.
“Freeper Mama Shawna said it on another thread last night:
“Reading that made me think I was reading something straight out of Atlas Shrugged. Wow.””
The BidenBunch thinks Atlas Shrugged is a script, and the long train of abuses and usurpations in the Declaration of Independence is a checklist.
Electric tanks and howitizers.... Not in our lifetimes.
Should have used all the money they spent on grifter homeless and bike paths to expand the infrastructure at the airport. Progs gotta prog.
Yeah I can see the signs now
“GASOLINE AND DIESEL FOR GOVERNMENT USE ONLY
ALL OTHERS WILL BE PROSECUTED”
“This is a problem of storage capacity not keeping pace with increased demand.”
Just like the traffic problem in Austin, and for the same reason: “If we don’t build it, they won’t come”. Didn’t work then, won’t work now.
“CALL BR549 for more information”
Junior? Is that you?
"In addition, passengers that bring 5 gallons of jet fuel, in approved fuel containers, will be upgraded to First Class seating on most airlines."
Population of Austin:

1960 186,545
1970 253,539
1980 345,890
1990 465,622
2000 656,562
2010 790,390
2020 961,855
Someone on another site suggested the supply chain chaos is all planned and perhaps is being used by China to prepare for war. I don’t know but it is very disturbing seeing empty shelves at the market on and off for two years. It is scarier now, in that covid is not really a factor anymore.
Oh, I hope they ALL run out of jet fuel. Serves them right.
All those tech millionaires flying in and out on their private jets.
The Uniparty wants sanctions because they hate average Americans.
There is no other explanation.
The “Russia” excuse is like complaining about the high school bully by shooting yourself in the knee.
Only suicidal maniacs would do that.
” US is hit with the worst supply chain crisis in modern history”
Manufactured crisis.
A hybrid self-propelled howitizer is easily doable with current technology. Just no benefit. As for tanks, the benefits are obvious for an electric version, but agree, not technically feasable.
