    Still remember when Obama was in office. Gas was $1.50.
    Republicans were taken picture of gasoline prices in their state saying like they did that.

    BRING BACK OBAMA!!!

    This is what happens when you destroy domestic energy production… Keystone, drilling on Fed lands, etc. Yet you in the lamestream media refuse to blame the cause- installation of an inept administration with your help.

    When that's your millionaires doubled and tripled their money there was a great year for millionaires last year and thank God for that the president did a great job making sure that millionaires and billionaires double their money or tripled it just like he made corporations this year the very this year the prophets also what a great great opportunity if you're a millionaire and own corporations in America and this was done by the presence of United States with the support of the Democratic party and we should always support the Democratic party because it only cares and loves millionaires and the corporate world right Disney and let's remember always will Democrat keep America strong keep the corporations of America because God loves them

    No they'll just take it out of the lowest employees paycheck.
    $1 a mile compared to how much retail product is in the trailer is miniscule.
    The cost will come out of the guys pocket at the pump. If the market increases prices it's just to increase profits. This is not a news story

    These gasprices are normal. I made 5.25 an hr in 92. Gas was 1.33
    Its fair. Now minimum wage 15.00 its not that big of a deal. Rent. That a huge deal. Huge.

    Literally on top of inflation Americans are taxed to the max. So despite the massive surge in gas prices Americans don’t have any savings as at least 8-12 % goes to taxes. Making it even more difficult on everyday activities.
