National Average Price of Gasoline Hits an All-Time High

If this is the case then this is so stupid it is difficult to comprehend. We've seen it almost has no impact but it undermines our national security. They are making this dumb idea common. They repeatedly show they might be trying to put us in a position of weakness. Is the enemy running our government?

This would be the time to relax some of the regulatory and political pressure to get the industry interested in helping out, and maybe back off on gas and diesel taxes. Dems won't; doesn't fit their agenda; they'll play the idiotic stimulus card and propaganda game and make the problem worse. The "party of science" doesn't know schiff about how things work.

Most of them have depended on taxes to get paid much of their careers.

Explain to me how this is the democrats' fault

Sitting at the desk where the buck stops mainly. Also, not offering up solutions to blunt the cost. Electric vehicles isn't the solution for everyone.

Transporting fuel that could be transported via pipeline is dumb as well.

A bunch of head scratching things going on right now.

Same party that got wrapped around the wheel on - Russian collusion, Kavanaugh, Steele Dossier, tweets, impeachments etc. is wondering how this is their fault. Less focus on manufactured distractions and more focus on the issues. Believe many are starting to believe how convenient it was to keep Biden in a basement. Open up the pipelines and watch how the calm of the American people take place.

Since gas prices are high worldwide, wouldn't this be a problem not attributable to American political decisions?

It's a combination of bad policy decisions both here and in Europe but since we are "the leader of the free world" the buck stops here. Our dependents in Europe wouldn't have crippled themselves had we not allowed it.

No, open up the pipelines that were shutdown on day one of this administration and let's talk about American political decisions.

President Christine Lagarde said she was anticipating a rate rise at the central bank's meeting in July.

"Based on the current outlook, we are likely to be in a position to exit negative interest rates by the end of the third quarter," she wrote in a blog post. "

I had no idea the EU already implemented negative rates. What a bunch of idiots

By playing big brother to them since WWII and not forcing Europe to stand on it's own has allowed them to be completely irresponsible, they're like children.

Talk about a kick in the gut
Penalized to save And when a recession hits you are even further underwater.
Yet this time with inflation there will be no gov bailouts unless they further massively increase taxes on the rich.
Madness

Favorite part? The American reserves headed for Europe. We can't even keep our strategic reserves at home.

Cool, but that has absolutely nothing to do with the current situation and circumstances.

Gas prices have hit record highs but don't expect Biden to lower them: 'They already used their biggest bullet'

Slo Jo & his Cackling Ho are going to let gas prices hit at least $8/gal. Then they’ll lower them to around $5/gal. and declare they solved the crisis.

It won't happen, but it sure would be nice to get a large enough margin to over ride vetoes.

Maybe not gas related, but I picked up a personal size of Funyuns as a snack for later and when I looked at the bag when I got home, good lord, they were $2.29. Back in the day, something this size was 29 cents and a year ago probably a $1.

They will try to cheat (again). The headlines will read "Due to the monkeypox pandemic, mail-in voting will be recommended for the midterm elections. Also, ballot drop boxes will be set up at various locations for voter convenience."

I stopped at Kroger over the weekend to get gas one night and all the pumps were out. I don't know why, but I had to go down the street to the next station.

It wasn't because of a gas shortage.
