LOL...
After years of denial, finally some admission.
That's the problem when things are shitty for most people. They don't buy your gaslighting bullshit anymore.
Democrats have 8 more months to make things worse before the election. I'm really pulling for them.

All the gas stations near me are $4.00 or more today. We've never seen $4 per gallon in Indiana before.
Go Joe*!

Should have filled up this morning...
It was $4.25 at 3PM today. An entire quarter raise in a single day on top of record Indiana prices.
Go Joe*!
You're so fuckin' done dude.

I think $12.92 is too high. Elsewhere I see a price of only $10.194 per gallon in Norway.

That doesn't mean anything out of context.
In our own country, $4.25 per gallon can mean VERY different things depending on where in the country you're talking about.
People living the high life on the coasts aren't going to be hurt like people living at or below the poverty line. The people who were already taking out Payday loans every time an emergency came up.
And somebody living rural who has to drive a long way to their job is going to pay a hell of a lot more just to keep making money at their job than somebody who lives in the city.
I don't know what people in Norway make. Maybe they should have something to offer and get those prices down. What the hell is wrong with them for paying that much.
Bottom line is if you're somebody in America right now virtue signalling that everyone should be happy to pay more at the pump for somebody else's freedom when all you're really doing is funding the neo-con/neo-lib war machine, you obviously were born with a sliver spoon up your asshole and you can go right ahead and bounce on it.

Quote:6ix, what do you want? A separate price at the pump depending on your income? Poor people pay a dollar and as your income rises the price peaks at twenty? That would make it crystal clear that prices are arbitrary and capricious. Therefore, refineries set their price with more finesse so that you don't figure out what they are doing. What happens is that gas prices are set by refineries to make the maximum amount of money, which will vary by state and by country. The refineries don't want it to be too obvious that they are screwing you out of as much money as they can, which depends on how much money you have.

If you would bother to click on a link you would see that there are a bunch of countries that sell gasoline for under 10 cents per gallon. Even more that sell gasoline for less than a dollar. That is what gasoline truly costs. Are you being charged more? That is pure profit.

It is not gasoline prices, but there is petition to control drug prices. Americans are paying three times as much as other countries. It is not because the drugs are more expensive to make here. It is arbitrary and capricious pricing. Same drugs, just like gasoline, are sold by one factory all over the world, but the price you pay depends on what country you live in. You get charged the price that sellers, not the government, think they can get away with.

It doesn't matter what I want. But now that you mention it, I bet there'd be a lot less rich white Liberals virtue signalling about all of this if they were paying $20 per gallon.
At the end of the day, you can give as many excuses as you want to for all of this, but it's not going to matter when people vote in November. The gas prices were around $2.30 when Biden took office and they're $4.00 now (with some predicting it will be $5.00 to $6.00 by summer time). Enhanced unemployment benefits ended long ago. The eviction moratorium is up. Groceries just keep getting pricier along with everything else money can buy. All of that happened after Biden* took office, no matter who's fault anybody thinks that it is.
What your average voter is going to think is that the Biden* administration is speed-running the collapse of the economy, and the way that people vote is going to reflect their dissatisfaction with it no matter how many times Steven Colbert says that you should pay it and feel good about it.

Kuwait $1.308
Russia $1.413
Your car would burn that Kuwait fuel just fine, but your local refinery knows that you have no idea what prices are elsewhere, which why you pay too much.

You're having a one sided argument here.
Meanwhile, Biden* just signed the death warrant for his political career and that of many Democrats all over the country this week.
No need to argue me on this point. We're just going to sit here and watch it happen without a damn thing either of us can do about it.
