Sam rejected the mantle of Captain America and refused to keep the shield. Therefore, since Sam did not agree to be Captain America at that time, Steve Rogers remained Captain America until the next guy took over. 

Get it right.

I will never understand these "Libertarians' who think the POTUS is the CEO of the Global economy.

If Trump were president of the US gas would be cheaper everywhere.

Because Putin marching through Europe undeterred would have been awesome for the economy, amiright?

he accepted it at the time though, it wasnt until after that encounter that he took it back to the government. 

 

 

 

which, if were being honest, never give anything to the government. :lol: 

  • First-quarter GDP declined at a 1.5% annual pace, worse than the 1.3% Dow Jones estimate and a write-down from the initially reported 1.4%.
  • The pullback in gross domestic product represented the worst quarter since the pandemic-scarred Q2 of 2020.
  • Initial jobless claims totaled 210,000, a decline of 8,000 from the previous week.

If Bubblehead wasn't in office, and we had a Republican president, Putin never would have invaded Ukraine.  Having Bubblehead occupy the White House invites aggression from rogue regimes.

LOL we have a few more natural resources than the UK to bring our prices down. Cruz may have his flaws, but he absolutely lays it out on this one.

Oil is a global commodity. And the US was a net exporter of oil in 2021.

Narrative fail.

The inflation was coming Ukraine or no Ukraine.  However, I'm pretty sure Ukraine drives it up faster and higher and that it will take longer to get out of it.

General inflation was coming, but the price of gas as a commodity was always on track to mushroom during this century. It's derived from a limited resource of increasing scarcity whose extraction and refinement is becoming more and more costly with each passing year. People think it's expensive now, give it another 20 years. Maybe one day people will start seriously considering alternatives...

Sure but 20 years of tech is a long time as well.  A LOT can happen between now and 2050.

 

 

People always say there is so much that can be done to fix high oil prices. . .

 

Yet OPEC says, "F you" we set the price, and if you morons keep paying the price, regardless, we have no incentive to lower it.

 

This is how it works. If demand is high, they will happily deposit record profits until demand slacks. They cannot store it forever, they have to sell it.

Carter wasn't to blame either

Not really, especially considering how much greater control OPEC had over the international markets back then.

As usual, your brains are stuck up your butt.  We had low oil prices through the Trump presidency.   People like you kicked and screamed during the entire term.  Biden was installed, and now the bottom fell out.  But "nothing" can be done to fix.

Were you born this stupid, or do you work extra hard at it?

Much obliged for you letting everyone know you understand NOTHING about the global price of oil.

 

Please don't molest any pets this weekend.

The global oil expert :roll:

Many of us were saying that if Biden gets elected, the price of oil will climb, and there will be war.  Biden gets elected, the price of oil skyrockets, and we have a war with talk of WWIII.  But Toasty is the expert on global oil prices.  Ain't that rich.

No, I am not an expert.

I'm just not a frigging moron of your caliber. Which makes me look like an expert from your point of view, stuck in the dog crap on my boot.
