What’s going to power those manufacturing plants that process and package our foods? For instance, you can’t bake bread without ovens. That plastic wrap didn’t grow on trees. Brian Deese is just one more Leftnick chasing illusions of motherships at the end of the Santa Monica Pier.

Is leaded gas any cheaper to produce?

Lead improves octane when added to gasoline.
If a system is designed to use high octane it is more efficient.

But the current fleet is totally committed to catalytic converter emission controls which are not compatible with leaded fuels. Back in the late 70s we converted cars to use (cheaper) leaded fuels but you had to “gut” the catalytic converter to prevent plugging. This was before computer controlled closed loop fuel injection.

Way way cheaper - today’s gas has the lead removed (cost), ethanol added (cost), special blended by region and season (cost, cost), etc.

Currently wholesale ethanol is about 65% of the cost of wholesale gasoline.

I’d like to once see someone - Peter Doocy? - ask Jen Psaki exactly WHERE the power comes from to charge these electric vehicles - and what their ‘green’ solution is to home heating in the foreseeable future.

(I’m looking forward to Spring, here; but dreading the Winter that comes later.)

From what I’ve read, yes. If there’s more oil available worldwide, then the price goes down. Canada is still producing that oil but they’re sending it via the original Keystone pipeline. However, without Keystone XL they’re not able to produce as much on a daily basis, which is something like 800,000 barrels less.

a guy on local radio called Congressman Delgado in upstate NY. He complained about energy prices. Delgado’s office tole them that the solution is to give more Heating energy assistance program (HEAP) dollars to people. The caller said why not develop more energy here and loser the prices. The Dem’s office was confused by that reason.
