uh, we were still a net exporter of oil in 2021. and we continue to be a net exporter in 2022.

because despite all of the above, the president is not a king, and cannot appreciably increase or decrease the production of oil in the short term. there is no "drill baby drill" button in the White House.

Someone should have told Chuck Shumar that

Schumer's a political hack too. Gas has always been a political football, and it's stupid because presidents just don't have that much control in the short term. 

This is simple supply and demand economics. The demand for refined gasoline and diesel is higher relative to supply than two years ago by a wide margin, and price increases reflect that.

Things can be done to hedge against this long term. And removing red tape at the federal level would help, but red tape goes all the way down to local communities. Americans don't want refineries in their communities, and just like other dirty jobs Americans don't want to do anymore we're finding that it's cheaper to outsource gas refinery to places that can more easily pave over their poors to get factories and refineries built. 

Welcome to being a nation of entitled twats.

Hmmm - this sounds dangerous coming from an elected politician..... is this a threat to our democracy?

Even though you are not the sharpest knife in the drawer, you make me laugh, it's why I am glad you were not aborted by your parents. I celebrate your life with you, you still matter even if your only contribution to society is making me laugh.

So at even .20/gallon. I purchase roughly 30 to 50 gallons weekly, lets use the higher number. 

@ 50 gallons a week at .20/gallon less - I will save $10 a week.   YAY us.

Journal Entry 6/24/22

Today, Ipiggles, despite our differences, came at me from a place of openness, a place of kindness.  He was glad I wasn't aborted in the womb.  This really made me rethink my position on both abortion and partisanship in general.  I decided I'd join his fascist death cult.

In context of this issue being left Vs right, a meme of Cartman in womens clothing and makeup is oddly appropriate
