When diesel fuel soars, so soar prices at the grocery store. We can thank Obama for being in the tank with enviro-terrorists and global warming financiers.
Though kooks warn different, drill here; drill now will lower prices, and the US can’t endure European level prices for fuel.
Let's see the average truck holds 200 gals of diesel. If the price on diesel goes from $3/gal to $4/gal that's an extra $200 per load. If the load is 40,000 lbs that's an extra .5 cents per pound.
It's not the price of diesel it's everything else that's causing it to rise. Mostly, though, it's speculation that this administration is doing NOTHING to improve business climate in the U.S. - which is true.
The price is rising because the U.S.'s policies which make us vulnerable to foreign markets and control. All because this asshole in the WH is a racist, bigoted, marxist, socialist hell bent on taking over the U.S.
