High gas prices are driving people crazy. But are they any crazier than the people who have caused the rapid rise in gas prices with their crazy leftist energy policies?
PING!
It’s a matter of what you’re used to. I remember a friend expressing outrage, saying, “Nobody is ever going to pay a dollar a gallon for gas.” I explained the concept of flexible versus inflexible demand. The price of chocolate goes up, you take it off the list. You break a leg and it doesn’t matter how much the charges, you’ll pay it. The price we’re paying here is lower than the price in, say, Europe and it always has been. There are a variety of reasons, but primarily the government realized that cheap energy equaled GDP growth. But the present government wants to “transition” (I hate that word) the economy to pixie dust and unicorn poop. That’s why we have high priced energy.
I guess if it’s okay for three year olds to transition to the opposite sex then it is okay for Dems to transition our economy to socialism.
To accomplish this they are forcing people to transition to BROKE.

I remember, a old enough to remember, “Nobody is ever going to pay a dollar a pack for cigarettes.”
What are they now, $10.00?

Can we “transition” gas prices to negative numbers?
You need to add this one into the mix:

Supposedly over half of the cigarettes sold in New York state are sold on the black market.
Only law abiding citizens pay the high prices.
