Unpopular opinion puffin: It's not even those 2 asswipes fault for high prices on gas or anything else really.. This is just greedflation. Oil companies just use any "crisis" to jack up prices..
It's both, but the actual production supply for oil was reduced by over 20%. That doesn't mean that prices will go up 20%... it means that demand would need to be reduced by at least 20% to keep prices stable. That's the equivalent of asking 1 out of 5 people to stop using gas entirely.
It’s on its way up for quite awhile and it will stay up far after this illegal war is over. Trump is a psychopath. He is incapable of seeing humans as people. They’re simply minions to do his bidding. The only thing he is capable of caring about is getting what he wants when he wants it. If there’s any chance of saving this country, every trump supporting politician needs to go to prison. That’s the only way.
even more glad I live in a college town, sold my car over 14 years ago and still bike everywhere at 60 years old than I ever was before. Even in a state that has half the car insurance costs of Jersey, which while not saying much, is still money I didn't have to spend, let alone fuel and repair and maintenance costs out the yazoo.
I got suuuuuuuper lucky and nabbed a Trek with a gorgeous bontrager leather saddle for $125 at a local college bike reclamation non-profit literally as someone was bringing it in the door to bring it in for sale.
The place was super busy as I got there to look for a bike and so I helped the woman get it out of her car and bring it in to pass some time, and after looking at it decided that THIS was in fact the bike I wanted, and felt it was worth paying a little more than I brought with me.

The people with the Biden "I did that" bullshit will be back out as soon as their new stickers come in, right? No? Huh. Fancy that.

I filled up last night thinking that it's probably going up about .10 today. I haven't checked yet though to see if I was right

There's hope for lower gas prices when we descend further into a cyberpunk dystopian corporatist hell.

Awesome. I never like the hard saddle they give me, always have to buy a fancy one and replace the one you get on the new bike.
