Thankfully I don't drive much. A tank of gas lasts me between 2-3 weeks

If your argument is “Biden caused high gas prices,” then explain why they dropped and stayed lower.


No argument, he helped with the higher prices coming in. Then depleted the reserves.

Biden had the national average Over $5/gal without a war.

It’s not one data point. It’s a timeline.

2021: ~3.00
2022: spike to ~5.00
2023: ~3.50
2024: ~3.30

That’s four years of data showing a spike and then normalization.

You keep saying “one data point” because it lets you ignore the trend.

You numerals are made up bullshite. Again, gas prices were down all last year lower than any point during Biden. Now youre pitching because a global conflict caused the prices to spike and your argument is its not a single event causing the spike. Youre retarded or delusional, pick one.

$4.00 Gas (Which it isn't here)
20 gallons = $80 4x a month = $320

$2.50 Gas
20 gallons = $50 4x a month = $200

Difference = $120 a month.

Most Americans probably spend that amount a week on bullshite.

From the middle of May till the end of June 2022, regular unleaded was over $4.00 per gallon in southeast Louisiana. I have one record of paying $4.47/gallon. But because Biden was President then, none of you posted about the high price and none of the MSM had negative stories about the high price. TDS is real!

Yeah, I was paying $3.65.... Not sure how I'm swinging that extra $.35... but I hope I make it out alive.

I get it.

If a R causes gas prices to go up, it's okay.
If a D does it, it's bad.

A look into rajuncajun's post history will show this is factually incorrect

But I'm not a lib. If you read my post history for 3 seconds, you'd know that.

And you posted a typical "I'm never wrong about anything" response.

I'm just stating easy observations from this board with no bias.

People accept the way things are for many reasons. I'm a big fan of Trump.

All I'm saying is if you have a problem with high gas prices, you should always have a problem with high gas prices.


And don't downvote. Use words like adults...

This is just a simple take when you consider gas is also used to transport your food, harvest your food, produce other products, etc.

It adds up.

Yeah, I know. That time again when your contractors send you emails notifying you of rising energy surcharges. Funny those surcharges stick around when gas prices fall.
