The White House has one problem that rules them all: Gas prices

article: "[White House ] marked each day in the same way: With a painstaking, state-by-state examination of gasoline prices and the intricate market forces pushing them relentlessly upward."

How friggin stupid and clueless can these people possibly be? There is no secret. It is no mystery. These A-holes killed our energy industry. It is not some unfathomable economic mystery.

By the way, our oil and gas are natural resources that are the inheritance of all American citizens. One blessing of being American is our abundant resources. The communists are trying to take that blessing away.

For the past several months, a White House-led team of economic specialists has marked each day in the same way: With a painstaking, state-by-state examination of gasoline prices and the intricate market forces pushing them relentlessly upward.

I am almost 100% certain that Biden answered that question, or someone in the White House, by claiming they do not normally track gas prices. And tried to make it sound like no White House ever tracked gas prices.

One chart from AEI (Agriculture ) and one chart from EIA.gov. The second chart starts about the June 2020 mark of the first.

Usage in 2022 has dropped below that of 2021 ...

Yep, Joe (and Rob Klein) did that.

Same in San Diego...beaches that are usually packed were half as busy.

I see a lot of F-—k you Joe written on the pumps now in marker.

[dforest]

I bought some and hand them out to people who are more than happy to have some.

[dforest]

That is why people are finding more permanent means to keep the message on the pumps.

The next thing that Biden will do will be to try to reduce the speed limit to 55 mph and encourage (mandate) urbanization. Just like Carter.

Notice their thinking, that the solution is some government action.

Pretty soon we won't have affordable electricity either:

I have already reordered a new supply of stickers. Placing one before I leave the pump leaves me with some satisfaction.

Yep. Local Safeway. One can of Progresso soup: $4.29 (buyers club price). Message around THAT, you pieces of shit.

“The first is that they have little control over the problem.” Absolute BS. They shut down the pipelines on day one of this administration and disincentivized exploration to convert to solar and wind (anything but something that they cannot control, like oil and gas, coal, nuclear). When biden says “transition”, he means to zero carbon. You buttercups are just going to have to suck up $10 gasoline.

Democrats a midterm wipeout.
