Gas Prices Surge Past $4 Per Gallon, No Signs of Slowing Down
https://www.toddstarnes.com ^ | March 7, 2022 | Staff

The national average for gasoline prices has jumped to $4.07 per gallon Monday, according to AAA.

Under President Biden, Americans have seen a jump of more than $1.30 compared to last year, according to the national motor club.

The average is just pennies away from the all-time high set in 2008 when the price was at $4.11 per gallon.

Experts warn that prices are not going to slow down anytime soon amid the skyrocketing inflation and energy crisis already growing under the Biden administration.

“As Russia’s war on Ukraine continues to evolve and we head into a season where gas prices typically increase, Americans should prepare to pay more for gas than they ever have before,” Patrick De Haan, GasBuddy’s head of petroleum analysis, said in a statement.

California currently has the highest average at $5.43.

Former President Trump warned about gas prices going up to as high as $9.00 per gallon during the 2020 presidential campaign.

Remember when Trump warned us about $7.00 gas if Biden got in?

And all the corrupt media are going to conveniently blame this, and everything else, on Russia. They will never talk about Biden killing domestic oil production. They will never talk about Biden's insane spending. Nope. This will all default to Russia invading Ukraine.

And the assistant Democrats will go along with the narrative.

Clearly this is YOUR fault, you need to cut your consumption, freeze to death if need be. No way Jen Psaki is going to allow Joe to remove the drilling restrictions and increase supply here in America.

California its $7 and going UP—soon to be $10 a gallon. Then will come Rationing! When the Big War comes and people start to torpedo tankers from Arabia —then you will see real Price hikes! When depression come—we will take the world with us.... Then comes the starving times. All this before Biden leaves office. I really hope I am wrong on this.

I know hate is a strong word, but it applies, I really do hate Democrats, and that includes assistant Democrats.

He’s so perfect.....msbehavin said he doesn’t even have a hemorrhoid, he’s such a perfect ***hole.

Biden never misses a chance to flaunt how perfect he is.

“I’m not going to make a judgment for other people,” he said recently, sounding more perfect than ever, when asked how he is able to reconcile his Catholic faith with his public support of abortion.

It must be a burden on perfect Biden to have created such perfection to be hounded by people who don’t appreciate his perfectness......sob.

His Atlanta speech revealed Biden’s intense dislike for Americans.......
and his displeasure at having created a “perfect government” for such horrible people.

Biden became unhinged in Georgia especially b/c Stacey Abrams was not there to hold his hand .

Biden made one startling declaration after another.

He reviled Americans who disagree with him about how he has “perfectly” ensured the integrity of the American electoral process.

To somebody as “perfect” as Biden, dealing with us modern-day noose-carrying Confederates, us vote-suppressing racist traitors, is such a burden when you’re THAT perfect.

We deplorables can never hope to achieve the perfection Biden......and the Democrats have achieved...... under his perfect tutelage.

About an hour ago, I filled my vehicle again after a 5 short
trips yesterday. . .totaling almost 40 bucks. I pulled in at the station $4.19 a gallon and I noticed the sign had changed to $4.29 when I left . . .since I didn’t get a receipt I don’t know what I paid a gallon. This is criminal.
