Biden is not president.

If NM has problems they can just go ahead and do it.

Let Alzheimer Joe stop them.

The average person drives around 16,000 or so miles a year- roughly- give or take- at $2.59 a gallon now, that works out to $1,658 per year for fuel-

at $5.59, which some folks think it will rise to, or higher, that works out to $3,578 p/y,

an additional $2000 almost- to drive the same distance as we can at today’s prices

Gee, thanks liberals!

The economy is on life support, and these jokers are raising core energy prices. Smoot-Hawley 2. It’s not a good time to send shock waves through the economy. Wall St. isn’t reacting well, and big tech is taking huge hits to share values. Time to be in semi-liquid assets that hold value.

I’d probably look at commodities. It’s wartime.

In Canada,that $5/gallon wouldn’t be a hakf-bad price. It will probably be $7gallon or so.

that’s some Jim Jones cult-like mentality.

Maybe Joe will get up one day and tell them to drink the Koolaid, then things can get back to normal.

All this about the left. They don’t control states through radicalism. It’s demographics with the chronically poor and minorities. Republican arguments don’t reach those people they are behind a wall of awful education and government handouts. And they will elect a corrupt mediocre Democrat over a war hero Renaissance man republican every day of the week.

That’s why you have open borders, drugs, failing schools. To provide the Democrat party with the permanent underclass who couldn’t care less about policy discussions.

They lose jobs, their communities are falling apart and they vote Democrat. The loss of energy jobs will just be shrugged off.
