I’m so confused. So are you guys pro oil? I thought you hated it and had the government picking winners that weren’t that?

You wanted to make oil expensive so everyone would “go green” but now gas is 60% as expensive as it was under Biden and you’re angry. It’s just confusing.

I paid $3.45 this morning at Murphy’s in Gonzales. 10 days ago, I believe it was like $2.29 per gallon. I drive 45 miles one way to work. I get 36 mpg with my 2018 Corolla.

You cannot POSSIBLY be so obtuse as to believe higher gas prices will only impact you by $13 a week from a tank of gas. Pretty much everything goes up when the price of oil goes up, except the stock market.

I am a Trump guy. I still support Trump, but I didn't vote for, nor do I agree with, him starting useless wars, especially for the sake of freaking Israel. I voted for America first and a better economy. I.e. lower prices on goods and services. He screwed the pooch on this one whether you like him or not.

There were a lot of people believing that the Russia / Ukraine conflict was what was causing the price hikes.


While not the sole cause, Russia invading Ukraine certainly was one of the causes. That is not debatable.

Brent crude went over $100/bbl in February 24, 2022, for the first time since 2014.

Ehh...I'd rather oil just hold steady at $75/bbl, and not see workers in UAE and Qatar worried they might be a casualty when a field gets blown up.

These drastic spikes aren't favorable, and certainly not when the cause is a war.

You people are a bunch of pussies. You would have never made through WW2. Folks were growing their own food, ( victory gardens), gas ration cards, scrap metal drives, can’t buy tires for your car because rubber went to the war effort. American soldiers and sailors being killed every day. That’s why they were called the greatest generation because they were able to persevere through all of that and come out on top.

Stop complaining. Don't you know that the prices are only up because we are a warmongering nation that is half way around the world having to be the police and kick Iran's arse? Grunt and bear it. The prices will come back up because Trump is the President and he will MAGA.
