With friends like these, who needs enemas....
I wish I was only paying 3.00 per gal. $3.29 for premium in LA county.
Keep killing the Dollar Ben. If I could buy my own debt I’d probably do it. If it was destroying a Nation I might not.
Para what I heard on cavuto today. $110 A gallon after 1st of year.
Well it seems to me our nation was doing fairly well in 1992. Then our illustrious leaders decided China needed an IV push of American know how and money.
18 years later, how is that working out for us. The dollar is laying on the floor in the throws of death, and China today is eating our lunch.
So gas is going up. So is everything else folks. This ‘peace’ and prosperity has been brought to you by Leftists and RINOs.
You haven’t seen anything yet.
Anybody remember the 70s?
Richard Fisher, president and CEO of the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas, whose district includes Houston, said he could envision this second round of Fed purchases leading to a weaker dollar, “super ordinary inflation,” financial speculation and accelerating the transfer of wealth to the rich “from the “poor and the worker and the saver.”

Oh that’s what he must mean by “super ordinary inflation”
Shades of Richard Nixon!
I posted #9 before I saw your comment.
You should all feel glad that the price of gasoline is going up. After all, Obama has told us that if gas prices increase we will have more in our pockets since we will buy less gas.
$2.599 here in eastern Aiken County, SC. Western side of the county near Augusta, GA, $2.679
SC has one of the lowest tax rates on gas. And I’m thankful.
There. Fixed it for him. I knew how to do that because I did exactly that every other day in the "energy crisis" of the 1970's. Then Reagan got elected, the "cap on gasoline prices" went away, the lines went away, and then we found out that the "cap" had in fact been a "floor," because prices went down after the "cap" was removed. |
And yet . . . natural gas is very very cheap. We have an abundance of it. We should be converting over to LNG instead of the ethanol scam.
The falling dollars means higher gas prices..OBAMA will blame it on greedy oil companies
Salaries/salt money are not keeping up with inflation so what happens?
No LNG takes massive infrastructure changes we should be building Natural gas to liquid and coal to liquid plants like our nation depended on them because it does. A price floor of ~55 bbl for imported oil would eliminate the fiscal risk of OPEC dumping oil on the world market to plunge the price below what is needed to make a reasonable ROI on GTL and CTL. 55 a barrel is right for both technologies ask the South Africans for help they have been doing CTL for decades. Tell the Greens to piss up wind about the CO2 and lets use all the coal and NG we have been so blessed with.
You can only buy gas on the second and fourth Tuesday of every month.
Funnily enough, those are the only times I can afford to fill my tank....
I paid $2.79 for premium in Houston this morning. Of course, we do have 1/3 of the nation's refineries within 40 miles, and a very active oil business.
LA and California used to be pretty big players in oil and refining.
