Todd, I don't think these people can see the forest because of all the trees.....

Biden used up the US's national reserve. Now they've cut off alaskan drilling in certain places. People ain't slowing down on the use of oil-and the Northeastern USA is fixing to be using a whole lot more heating oil-adding demand. The russians, chinese, and the towel-heads are chomping at the bit over biden's blunders. His many blunders with oil are empowering all of those countries.

I am genuinely surprised it has taken this long. Take care. Tom Worthington

I just turned 65. I spent a little time yesterday talking to 14 and 18 year old grandkids about basic economics I learned in school.

It seems little is actually taught in terms of basic economy. Little taught in even interest rates and cost of money.

As long as energy high, all else headed to stagnation. Lower and middle incomes will feel it the most.

We are not impacted by this being in rural county and retired with no debt. Others are hurting though. This Administration is not doing good for average people.

Gas bouncing around $3.59 to $3.79 in central/south Florida.

Gas here in southern Nevada was $3.55 the first of the year, $4.36 now. Also, my natural gas has gone up 300% in less than 2 years. I was paying under $1.00 per therm, now it is over $3.00 per therm.

Everything Biden has done is working EXACTLY as he and his handlers planned. It isn't stupidity or lack of common sense. This is exactly what they want.

$7.08 for regular at a gas station in San Diego this morning.

Blaming everyone and everything else other than Biden for our energy woes is disingenuous at best and partisan hackery at worst...we all know what the price of gasoline, diesel fuel, heating oil and natural gas was the day Biden was elected compared to what it is now...Biden has cut our strategic oil reserve by half trying to cover his mistakes and even has begged our enemies, enemies mind you, to sell us oil...who in their right mind would agree with this energy policy?...

3.49 for gas and 4.29 for diesel here in Western OK. Guess I'll have to install a safe in the truck to hold cash for cash discounts during my trip to CA. next month!

A house that was $250,000 under Trump is now $400,000.

Home interest rates were about 2.5% under Trump, now that rate is 7.9% and still climbing.

Since that same house is now "Worth" almost double TAXES go up same amount.

Home owners Insurance has DOUBLED here since Dictator Biden was placed in office by MASSIVE VOTER FRAUD.

What that means is to average guy who buys SAME house now would probably be paying more than four times more for SAME house. Nothing changed except administration and policies. I would like for someone to do the math and get actual numbers. Best I can tell you would be paying about 4 times more for same house.

And it is going to get WORSE. MUCH WORSE. Biden has barely got the head in. Or who ever is pulling his strings and telling him what to do to us.

I probably said this in the past but I remember when gas was .13 a gallon, as of yesterday it was $7.08 in San Diego. You don't have to be a math savant to see that oil Companies are making a decent profit. That is going to get worse as EV's outnumber gas powered vehicles. The Oil Companies are going to continue to profit by charging you more and more for a gallon of gas.
It's their greedy nature.

The goal is to end personal transportation which in turn will force the population to move into Cities. Rural life will be far to expensive for the common man, only the extremely wealthy will be able to afford living in the secluded, security fenced countryside. The wealthy Democrats want it that way.

Make no mistake......Power to control IS the game.

My son has a good friend that builds homes and a lot of them yearly. His business is nearing sewer levels as we speak on new builds Like he stated, Keep jacking interest rates in everyone's azz and this is what you get.

People are not going to spend an additional 500-700 a month in ripoff interest rates. No matter if its a 15 or a 30. Even with 20-30% dow

The market will tank like it is now. Same thing with the auto industry. Price gouging 101.

Wait till you see where freight pricing goes.
You'll be so broke, you wont be able to pay attention.

Ya Powell, keep jacking interests rates. Destroying the economy one day at a time.

Interest rates arnt bad now in 1980 I moved to Des Moines Ronny Ragun was president -rates where 15.5% so ya it sucks but what ya gonna due

As was stated.
This is EXACTLY what they campaigned on and they are doing EXACTLY that. It's simple (and unfortunately the younger crowd and many women don't get it or care), get gas prices so high that no one will want a combustion engine vehicle.
Our local car dealerships (Ford, GM, Chrysler, Subaru, Nissan, Toyota, etc) have NO new cars on the lots due the manufactures switching everything over to electric models. I spoke to our local Jeep dealer, he stated he can only order EV's with delivery dates, the gas vehicles have NO arrival date so no ones ordering them.

On a VERY GOOD NOTE, my buddy that has a local towing company is CRAZY BUSY towing these EV's. This summer was his best summer ever. People trying to drive around with the AC on killing the batteries being stranded on the side the road, parking lots, etc.
He's really looking forward to winter if it's going to be as cold as they say it is going to be.
He actually had to go out and recover a BRAND NEW EV bus that was being driven from the factory (mid west) to Connecticut. The diesel versions would take 2 days to deliver, the EV version takes 11 days to deliver IF THEY MAKE IT.

Voting has consequences and people are getting exactly what they voted for.
The worst is yet to come, the 2024 election will be 100% Democrat take over.

Remember the "Supposed" 2022 RED WAVE last November.
Where did that go - NO WHERE.
Repubs play by the rules BUT, the DEMS don't have to, i.e. ILLEGAL Ballots.
Here is one of our latest Connecticut Dem being caught a couple weeks ago on camera and NOTHING is being done about it.
Same thing happened a few years ago, nothing happened.

People are VERY IGNORANT when it comes to voting, they think this stuff doesn't happen because they are told it doesn't.
Here's proof but no one cares.
Oh, and they think this is the ONLY TIME this has happened, IDIOTS.
Why do you think the Dems are pushing for more mail-in ballots and early voting?
Answer is simple, this way the know ahead of time how many ILLEGAL BALLOTS they need to win.
That's why IN-PERSON voting is on the way out.
Just keep putting you head in the sand.

Good times are coming.

Why all the bytchin? Every last one of us is a selfish prick. Could be 20 bucks a gallon we'd all be figuring out how to get to the next race instead of dumping their fuel in the harbor and taking our country back. We let it get to this point and still no posse has yet to be formed so it is what it is.

If gas reaches $20 a gallon the economy of the United States would completely crumble, and you could be right it might. All that has to happen is for Joe Biden to be re-elected for another 4 year term.
