First off let me state that I have never bought into the notion that any President can affect gas prices on his own, yes that they get ridiculously low under Trump for a short period and by me that actually was under $1 per gallon. For the past couple years around me it has hovered between $2.50 & 3.19 a gallon with the price today $2.96. Anyways Biden releasing 50 million barrels is like pissing into the ocean and won't amount to jack squat so it's humorous to see the DCCC release chart where they broke down a recent price drop into fractions of a penny and on Twitter people thanking JB for the 2 cent drop. Funny how that chart makes it appear as if there was a massive price drop.

I know it’s weird, killing huge pipeline deals and encouraging dependence on foreign energy while at the same time increasing rates on exploratory prospects in the us has such an effect on energy prices. The good thing is that coal, the dirtiest hydrocarbon you can burn, has never been worth more. And to think, all those disappointing Christmas mornings were going to make me a millionaire…

Shutting down domestic production I guess because it hurts mother earth, then telling the Saudi's to increase production to keep prices stable. Obviously, mother earth be damned. (Yes, man caused climate change is a scam) Then, dipping into our strategic reserves to put more on the market to calm rising prices.
It makes zero sense...Unless you know what shot callers have what deals with whom. Who benefits from these policies that fk you and me so much. It all makes sense, if you just know who the players are that are benefitting. It ain't me; I ain't no fortunate one.Envy is ignorance. Imitation is suicide.

The decisions coming from this administration, across nearly all facets of governance seem too much to only be from incompetence. It is truly insane. Next will be kill all cows to reduce methane and be shocked at the cost of imported beef prices. CNN actually had an article about why inflation was a good thing though, so I must just not understand macro economics with my wrongthink.

I'm not a fan of crazy Democrats or weird liberals, just saying. In fact, I foresee Biden continuing to do an absolutely awful job as the president of the United States.

I am lucky, the work from home thing has saved me a ton on dry-cleaning/lunches and 2x per week fill ups.... so 40 bucks for half a tank is ok for now.

Perhaps, but Dude, can we agree that trump is the devil? haha, but seriously, Trump is like renting a jack hammer from Home Depot. You use that jack hammer to hammer some stuff, and yes there's a lot that needs hammering. But u cant just hammer everything. And the longer u hang onto that thing, the more u gotta pay when u return it. And then there's late return penalties...
U know I'm just trying to lighten the vibe, eh. It's stressful times for all, but deep down we all want the same things. Except of course the French but they can kiss my ass.

Not really, there is a looney out there who ran for president I think his name was Spartacus (actually I can't remember his name) but he made eating eggs a political issue. Unfortunately there are people in this world that agreed with him and think eggs are some kind of horrible fuking thing, like how dare people eating fuking food for gods sake.
Then there is the anti-beef crowd.

I hear u brother, but it's all just noise that distracts us from what's really important, IMHO. That's creating an environment that permits us to each seek to realize our human potential. Yes, gainz, brother. Every instinct I have tells me we got to find common ground, dig in and do some hard work; both internal like, and then external.
Dude, the Chinese Government are relentless, ruthless, and not playing...

That sucks, if a company is all about profit and being smart why do they insist on this waste of employee time of commutes? Its proven that most people are more productive if they didn't have to deal with 3 hours of traffic a day.
For instance if someone is on the road that long they are less useful if needed at work I could never turn on the computer when getting home cause other things need tending to at home like walking the dog.

Tomorrow is December 7th. Pearl Harbor.
Many Americans are unaware, but there were several planned waves when Pearl Harbor was attacked.
First and second waves took out military hardware.
The third wave was to take out OIL RESERVE. For some reason, it did not happen. It was cancelled and the planes were ordered to return to the Japanese fleet.
Historians argue that if the Japanese had carried out the third wave, America would have been crippled for YEARS instead of only months.
How does this relate to Brandon?
Easy.
His rating was plummeting due to high gas prices, so he released the reserve.
Here's the thing.
The reserve is there not to save ratings. It exists so that if America got attacked, the US Military will have enough fuel to respond and unleash the can of whoopazz. (Although I doubt we still have the capability to do so, since we have gone WOKE. But I digress.)
Brandon is depleting the reserve so the Chinese will only have to conduct two waves.
Let that sink in, commie nuthugging brandon sheeple.
What brandon did was national security treason.

My first motorcycle cost just over a buck to fill it to the brim. Went into the dealership this morning to get some spark plugs, filters and oil for my ATV's, 20 minutes later I walked out owning this thing. It was love at first sight, never once considered the price of fuel, Zero Fuks given, I am going to burn it regardless

I’m not playing either, you will see a machine being built in the workout thread, the high rep squat are also relentless ruthless and not to be taken lightly. And China and thier American henchmen will see fire and fury if they fuk with me. I just need a few years to build this power. Every week is getting better.
