doesn’t matter if they do or don’t.
the vote counting in AZ should tell you all you need to know.
I have liberals friends online who are celebrating that gas is “down to” $3.85 here. Of course, they conveniently leave out the fact it was $1.67 two years ago under Trump.
No, vast majority of Americans will not but be assured, the lamestream media wants you/us to hence their focus on gas prices dropping......
Some more time needs to go by before a conclusion can be made, IMO. Americans got hit by the big ramp in oil and now it’s seemingly backing off. But forget not that it could pick up again on perceived demand as the inflation story recedes. And that is very probable, as the crazy inflation numbers, being year over year, cannot continue indefinitely. Gasoline prices cannot be ignored, every person sees it/them every day. Supermarket prices are a little more muted even though they are very noticeably higher. But I take your point, gasoline got to “holy crap” but seemingly have retreated some to “not so bad”. It’s a form of shock therapy.
One trip to the grocery store is a good reminder of how bad things are. 3.25 gas is not enough to make a difference to make people “forget.
It’s a global economic contraction reducing global oil demamd lowering pressurw on the price. Biden’s maneuvers had 100% nothing to do with it.
Yes...there goes the “muh red wave”ers thinking that inflation’s gonna result in a 2010-type election!
It is still $5.60+ here in southern California.
The Biden recession may push prices to the lower 4 dollar range, I doubt 3.25.
Diesel has not gone down however...and Winter is coming.
Do bears chit in the woods? OF COURSE the sheeple will forget! Do we honestly really believed the Democrats were just gonna kick back and let a red wave happen? I’ll say it again and again until I’m blue in the face the Democrats will probably squeak out victories in both chambers. Pisses me off to say it but they know how to strategize how to plan how to encourage their base etc. etc. what do we have on our side BACKSTABBING POS RINOS fighting with the base hating Trump and the MAGA candidates that don’t belong to the establishment etc. I never see this type of infighting among the dirty evil rats ...they usually unify behind each other!
Sheep have innate characteristics...
I can remember being outraged when gas-per-gallon went from $0.11 to $0.19 to $0.29...
Gas is $3.85 around here. People in my office are sooo happy. Two years ago it was $2.00. Biden is a hero. We’re saved!! AND, no more mean tweets!! Bonus!
I am with you in regards to a low opinion of the American public.
I think much of the public is uninformed, and uninterested. They will forget, and vote Dem because the media tells them that’s what smart, virtuous people do.
You’re fearsome that eyes open now will again close. Don’t worry such is not a factor in this game.
Chaos is the aim. No surety, not even of one’s self. They want you fretting. It plays exactly into their hands. It’s distraction.
How many true words will be written on this forum today? Will anything change for the better? N-O spells no. Will the left be more entrenched? Yes.
The correct move is revolution. Won’t happen though, maybe can’t.. Oh, well.
Demand is down to a recession, nothing to celebrate. Democrats aren’t going to get any credit for lowering prices by bringing in a recession.
For me, the empty shelves are a bigger problem than the gas prices. I want the products I used to buy regularly. I miss my favorite crackers, cola, ramen and a host of other little things I used to take for granted. Some things, like milk and eggs I can still get some of the time, but then I have to stock up because it probably won’t be there next time. The price of gas and everything else is upsetting, but the missing products are a constant reminder of the destruction of the wonderful world I used to live in. About a week ago I came across a bag of things I had packed about 3-4 years ago for an overnight trip. There was about a half a roll of the toilet paper I used to buy. I felt like I struck gold. It’s going to take more than cheaper prices to satisfy me.
Demand is down because the economy is in recession. People are losing their jobs. It will get much worse before it gets better.
There is supposed to be some worldwide additional sanction on Russian oil coming in a month or two that will drive prices back to the $6 range - was a comment mentioned in passing on a cable news show - nothing more was made of it.
Don’t know where the guy got it from nor if it is even true.
Emptying our strategic reserve gives a temporary price relief in time for elections.
