Why do gas prices go up fast but then take 6+ months to come back down

ETA: coastal MS at peak was around $4 during all this BS. Its been stuck on 3.00- 3.30 for like two and a half weeks

No dude. A socialist would take over the companies for Der Staat.

So, if these companies are price gouging, an R is not supposed to speak out about it? Is this what you are saying?

That makes sense.

Thanks for sharing that.

Cashing in on pre-July 4 travel at higher gas prices.

Of course then you have the dot Indians that just have high gas prices regardless

And you sound like an idiot.

You don't know what the word "socialist" means nor do you know the history of Presidents "jaw boning" big companies to achieve desired benefits for American citizens.

That AIN'T socialism!

He knows why prices are slow to go down. He's just reminding everyone that prices are going down.

I would have to argue with Trump on the people of California not standing for high taxes on gas. They obviously are ok with it or they would start voting differently.

He’s not passing laws to lower prices. He has the right to call for lower prices. It’s a free market….both ways

Nope. He’s just stating that there’s companies out there that will take advantage of consumers when certain events take place.

He just took a page out of the DeSantis playbook…Ron has said the same thing several times after hurricanes.

What is embarrassing about it. Or you forgot to take your lithium pills again?

They are price gauging

So a president using their bully pulpit to chide and implore businesses to bring their prices down is socialism?

I think a true socialist/communist would just take over and dictate what the price would be.

Man, for a socialist, dictator or king, DJT isn’t being very effective.

Maybe he should tariff the oil we import. I was told that would lower the price.
