If Joe Biden has anything to say about it, most of the supply will go to Europe.
So $5/dozen eggs are just the beginning?
Well, if you voted for biden and dimocraps, this is your doing.
Diesel is a commodity in a global market.
If Europe doesnt buy from Russia, then others will buy from Russia as deliveries from elsewhere shift to Europe.
This is like a waterbed. Press down in one spot and the rest rises.
The real problem is if you take supply out of the system. Thats whats already going on in the US. From this year on US refiners are unable to produce as much as they did.
This will affect the global market, almost equally everywhere, after things adjust. Its possible that other nations refiners will be able to make up the difference, but we can only wait on that.
But at least we’re sticking it to Vlad... that’s what matters most.
I think there is a good chance, if Republican gain control of House and Senate, that Joe and the executive branch will do as much stupid stuff as they can and then “remind people” that things got really bad when those Republicans had control.
This is not going to be pretty as it lowers the FED’s effect on inflation.
In total, the USA has been exporting 6 million b/d of refined oil products and 2.96 million b/d of crude oil.
See: eia.gov
it’s hurting us more than russia...
Yes. Russia is getting lower prices for oil. Here in the US, the population has been increasing with the influx from regions closer to the equator, so there are ever more trucks on the highways. Refining capacity needs to be increased.
This won’t go well, expect the worst.
This administration couldn’t handle baby formula.
The Obama-Biden administrations are literally destroying America. /Captain Obvious
To vote Democrat is to risk one’s well-being.
Biden promised he would end the fossil fuel industry. That’s what we’re seeing happen.
Also, if you have your own overflowing domestic supply, and plenty of refineries (as we did in the past), then, like with a full SPR, you can cruise over the rough stretches.
But if you domestic production is way down, refineries are closed and none built, and the SPR depleted as a cheap political trick....
Your country is screwed.
(All three of the supply corners wrecked, “by accident,” or on purpose? Sabotage.)
The SPR is a political trick, and it has been so for many decades, but “depleting” that has had only a marginal effect, if any, on current shortages of refined products.
The US is screwed for much bigger and broader reasons than that. The inability to construct refineries is just a symptom of an entire social system curdling into decadence and paralysis. “Decadence” here doesnt mean just sexual excess.
Got eggs for $1.98 at Aldi’s a few days ago.
Last week I got tomatoes for 98ยข/lb.
Check out Aldi’s if they are near you.
Not all their prices are great but alot are.
Watch this and weep.
