Why is gas in California more expensive than Hawaii right now?
The cause is record setting war on US energy independence by democrats! Never before has any party been so stupid and so wrong. If the wanted to destroy this nation, what would they do differently?
I can't stop laughing at the sheep still screaming "iTs BrAnDonS fAuLt". The Kool Aid is strong with them because any intelligent person knows that the president doesn't set the gas prices. BLAME THE OIL COMPANIES, they are price gouging and lobbying against regulations.
a. Let's face it, the fossil fuel industry keeps their hand on the spigot to keep fossil fuel prices artificially high.
b. Also, fossil fuels that come from America's soil should stay in America First, then excess sold to the world's market instead of fossil fuels extracted from America's soil going directly to the world's market.
c. Additionally, hydrogen, the most abundant element in this universe, can be utilized to power a nation as many nations are already doing as those nations move away from fossil fuels for various reasons. (One of which is energy independence and another is not having to fight wars trying to obtain and maintain a fossil fuel infrastructure).
Oh please, anybody familiar with corporate planning knows the gas hike is deliberate—that’s literally why John Kerry attended the big Glasgow climate rendezvous—these pledges and treaties and alliances REQUIRE the controlled demolition of oil and gas options, and the Big Oil execs are in on it. The Saudis and other area producers have been courted by the World Economic Forum’s elite into partnerships that gradually choke off consumer supply while accommodating the needs of participating Great Reset corporations and governments. Of course, I do understand the difficulty in accurate reporting as CBS is owned and funded by these same corporations.
The market structure keep going down perharps huge profits is been made by experts. Heard that holding ain’t a smart move on the short run please any ideal on how to make better profits in the market.
Us truck drivers are paying over 3k a week,this is passed on to consumers ppl…..
Biden stops 2 pipelines, bans drilling on public land and offshore, allows states to prohibit refineries, starts a war with Russia and bans importing their oil. Hmm. Wonder what caused this?
Joe Biden is causing it cmon man
A Win – Win Idea
The world wants to move toward "Green Energy" electric vehicles and away from fossil fuels anyway. There is a shortage of of oil resulting in higher gas prices. Why not switch to electric mass transportation with bus routes traveling from one hub to another with many small shuttles operating in routes through communities to transport riders to a major hub. Some cities already use electric vehicles to provide free or subsidized fares. School buses should also be electric. Some who can afford it may still drive but for every car not driven, about 20 to 30 gallons of less gas is needed. It should reduce the demand for oil and may encourage more drivers to switch to electric vehicles sooner which is one goal of the current "green energy program".
Lets Go Brandon. Biden has been declaring war on Americas Energy Sector.
It's Joe Biden oil policy… The first thing he did was get rid of Trump Era policy that lower prices and Made America Energy Independent
Biden voters love the inflation, highest in 40 years!!
LP reacted d ryt way, she is Sweetlovee.Monster need of over drama, or over consider ations. She don't deserve *considerationsp. Lp പറഞ്ഞ പോലെ,, ജീവിതം തുടങ്ങിയല്ലേ ഉള്ളു, പഠിക്കട്ടെ.

About $4.60 for gas here lol
Biden signed Executive Orders cutting Crude Oil Production to reduce greenhouse gases & force you to buy an EV. DEMs don't care how much you suffer or they would go back to Trump era Crude policies to LOWER the price .
There was high gas prices with Obama too remember. It is like amnesia out here. Where was Putin's price hike then? Out here in California, they are buying mass natural gas generators to help curb rolling blackouts. I guess gas is not gas if you call it fossil fuels. Looks like the green new deal is just another green new con.
