Anyone with any real knowledge of how the global oil industry works says the increase in diesel prices is the result of Russia’s refineries getting attacked by Ukraine drones.

It got so bad that Russia banned export of diesel so their own country could supply themselves first.

Good. Giving the enemy a heads up would be dumb.

You're the one who seems to think the grocery store down the street doesn't increase demand at the other grocery stores.

I thought it an easy way to make the point that just because a source closes it doesn't mean the demand closes with it. All it means is less supply. And economically you should now prices are dictated by supply and demand.

Mostly it just seemed like you were claiming to be an expert on fuel prices while lacking a basic understanding of supply and demand.

Supply and demand is taught in introductory economics. Further evaluation is refined in advanced economics and continued education supports the failure of the model in many doctoral theses.

Because it's fundamental.

You're an idiot and this is nothing more than word salad.

There are factors that can affect both supply and demand and any such things would only explore the limitations/boundaries of it.

The basics of supply and demand are like the laws of gravity. Fundamental and even if you learn how to engineer an airplane they still exist.

Quite possibly the dumbest article I have read in a while

People aren't going out nowadays to bars because people don't fricking drink anymore and for those that do drink, the bar scene has turned into nothing but trash. Go out and get stabbed for looking at some illegal or thug wrong? NO THANKS.

We are slowly becoming like Europe where people simply don't want to socialize with people they don't know anymore. Yea let go party with a bunch of strangers that play on their phones all night.. that sounds like a fricking blast!

People don't go to concerts anymore because it has been exposed that the entire music scene (with the exception of Country) has been nothing but a fake hoax paid for by USAID. The old school artists (before Communism took over everything) are still selling out crowds. People simply do not like new music because it's all fake and people aren't going to their concerts anymore - That has nothing to do with the economy. Have you checked out the EDM scene lately? That's what the young crowd loves nowadays and the DJs are packing them in like sardines.

Restaurants are struggling? Not that ones who offer great service and quality food. If a restaurant has a fricking 3.1 rating on Google or yelp and wondering why they have no business - that has nothing to do with the economy.. that has everything to do with people boycotting their shitty restaurant because they suck

Vacations? People are vacationing at places where they don't feel like they have been ripped off. I know exactly what she is talking about and it is Las Vegas and Disney. I can't tell you how many videos and articles I have read about how Las Vegas and Disney are suffering because of the economy - That is flat out false. People are boycotting with their feet and taking their business elsewhere.

People don't drink anymore like we used to.. people don't really party anymore... people don't really gamble anymore so why are people going to spend their money in a town that nickel and dimes you at every turn? Instead, they are taking trips to places they feel safe like to the beach, visiting Branson or Gatlinburg or other theme parks with the kids replacing their Disney vacations and replacing the Vegas party scene with Nashville, Atlanta, Miami, etc

EVERY AMERICAN NEEDS TO SIT DOWN AND WATCH THIS 20 MINUTE VIDEO - If you refuse to watch this video, then stop bitching about everything because you have no room to bitch about anything

Yea, you're going to go see Lizzo? Doja Cat? Bad Bunny? You're going to go see some Mumble Rap in concert? You're going to go see fake arse Pop stars who sit on tiktok all day trashing our country?

people don't really gamble anymore

Known fact.. People now gamble on their phones so why would they go to Vegas to gamble when they can do it on their phone and the ones who do gamble aren't going to Vegas to Gamble.. they are taking their business elsewhere to gamble (the little regional casinos)

The people who bend over backwards to support Trump are insane. Just admit he sucks now


He can't make chicken salad out of chicken shite.

That doesn't mean he doesn't have bad ideas or policies. He absolutely does.

Current gas prices are the result of the Ukraine War (which we really can't stop) and the Iran conflict (which was necessary because a terrorist state getting nuclear weapons is an objectively worse outcome).

Trump spends like a drunk sailor, call him out on that. But the high gas prices? Sometimes it do be that way, and this is one of those times.
