$4 by this time next year

THAT is an optimistic outlook... my prediction is well into the high $4 range... even hitting $5 in many areas.

Maybe the gas station could auction off their gas to the highest bidder to get around the gouging laws.

I can’t believe all the great things Biden has done in just his first few months:
1) Energy Crisis
2) Middle East Crisis
3) Border Crisis
4) Unemployment Crisis
5) Inflation Crisis
6) Rampant Crime Crisis
7) Personal Freedom Crisis


But... but... no more “mean tweets!”

I was a little shocked to see my first gas line in about 40 years yesterday, cars out in the street and stretching for almost a block.

Shades of 1973 !

All the little tricks I used to get back and forth to college come back to me now - drafting a semi on the interstate, turning off the engine at traffic lights, etc.

I guess TV and radio will have call-ins again to alert us to a station that just got a delivery. It’s sad but a little funny to see it again. I wanted to stop an ask who they voted for...

Does anybody really know what time it is?

Heh. $4 a gallon by Independence Day or before.

Did our leader give us permission to even celebrate Independence Day?

No air conditioner use this summer and turn your thermostats down to 63 this winter.

Under puppet man, nary a peep. They will defend one finger joe no matter what.

The media might try to hide or soft-soap it, but this is something the American public does not need the media to get the news. This is a pocketbook issue.

Don't bet on it. The communist Dems have rigged our voting systems for a reason.

If you encounter a Democrat or anyone who voted for Biden, tell them that they voted for this.

If they’re upset with increasing gas prices: “You voted for this.”

If they’re concerned with increasing food prices: “You voted for this.”

If they’re uncomfortable with crime going up: “You voted for this.”

I remember when Obozo the jug eared assclown was pining for $8 per gallon gas.

Soon we’ll see that thing that happened during the last high gas price period. People will lose thousands of dollars trading in gas guzzlers for econoboxes, only to see gas prices decline again.

Last time, they lost thousands on their trades, saved a few hundred buck on gas, and then wished they hadn’t traded about 4 months later.

That was under George Bush. Oil hit 147 a barrel, and quickly went back down to $27 barrel.
