Gas runs from $7 to $10 per gallon right now in various European countries. It has been that way for a while. It is amazing what people are willing to tolerate.

They aren't hanging any political leaders from the highway overpasses just yet.

Newsom might just be able to survive gasoline cost at $10 per gallon in California if he can somehow blame it all on President Trump.

There is a large supply of people who are exactly that stupid. Does that supply run out faster than the supply of gasoline? We will find out.

We ain’t Europe. They have small cars, small trucks, and fewer distance between cities and countries. Also very little crude oil-meaning dependence on MidEast and Russian oil. We have long distances between cities and have to move goods long distances.
