    This pending diesel shortage will sink this already leaking boat economy. So much of this economy relies on diesel --farming, trucking. trains. fishing fleet, public transportation busses, cargo ships etc. I wonder how Bidumb will blame Trump for this shit storm?
    Gas prices seem to be holding at $3.39 how long who knows.

    Gas was going down hit $2.56 at Costco Friday --went today to fill up some gas cans jumped 43 cents gallon in 4 days. Heard on the radio Bidumbs corporate tax on the gas industry and the natural gas industry go into effect-- billions of dollars in taxes. We all know corporations don't pay taxes---we do

    Yeah, Brandon doesn't understand that if you raise taxes on any business, then that business must raise prices to remain in business! It's just basic economics, and not understood by politicians that have never held a real job! Now Brandon will express his outrage at the greed of the oil companies and vow to tax the excess profits, which will cause prices to go even higher! LET'S GO BRANDON!!

    All taxes are paid by the consumer.
    Profits go to the shareholders.
    And what doesn't get paid by the consumer gets paid by the taxpayer.

    The consumer and/or taxpayer pays ALL the expenses in any business! Always have and always will! You tell people that and watch their heads explode!

    Gas is back on the rise, the dollar my collapse and war with the Chicoms may be on the horizon yet this bogus administration is pushing EVs and cutting our coal, natural gas and oil production. China holds the major supply of lithium so where the hell do this A--holes think we will get the lithium to make the batteries for their EVs if we go to war with China. Reminds me of WWII Japan was buying up all our scrape metal to fuel their war machine, we cut selling scrape as well as oil to them and Japan was up the creek. We go to war with China they are holding all the cards as far as oil. They have teamed up with Russia, Iran, Saudis ---our strategic reserves are half full. Will the Canadians help us out with oil---- oh that's right we don't have the keystone pipeline. I can't help but think our politicians have screwed us royally.
