Imagine seeing unchecked capitalism and greed and blaming it on one country's president and a Green New Deal that doesn't even exist. How do millions of people fall for such obvious bullshit? "Big Oil would love to have gasoline less than $2, but the darn big gubmint leftists and their bans are crippling them. They would love to pass the savings on to us if the libs would leave the free market alone." The gymnastics required to demand the government lower prices while leaving the market alone are pretty impressive tbh. Maybe the Democrats are the problem... for being just as weak as the Republicans when it comes to standing up against the corporate donors. --- http://card.psnprofiles.com/1/NIR_Hockey.png http://www.last.fm/user/hockeybub89/ ...

isn't this one of those things where this isn't actually a partisan issue, it's actually an issue with oil/gas worldwide? i mean, it's easy to blame the politicians, and it's easy to blame the corporations, but that just feels a little... too easy. think about it, we're seeing posts from all over the world about gas. i saw one from france where it was the equivalent of like $7.50 USD per gallon. so like, to blame it all on the corporations would imply that every gas company in the world gathered via zoom and said okay let's raise our prices slowly over time and we all win, ready set go. because gas is high everywhere. i also think the "record breaking profits" talking point, while valid to an extent, is unfortunately just bad timing due to the high demand resulting from people traveling for pleasure and being forced to commute back to work every day. --- https://i.imgur.com/cEQy3f4.png / https://i.imgur.com/gWKaLHC.png https://i.imgur.com/u6JR7qX.jpeg ...

Biden should start talking about nationalizing oil companies. That would drop prices really quick. Reminder that oil was more expensive in 2008, but gas prices are higher right now. --- We all live in a Yellow SUV! a Yellow SUV! ... Copied to Clipboard!

Remember when that oil exec got all offended at the idea that they were gonna use the war as an excuse to price gouge in the US even though we get like no oil from Russia at all and literally nothing had happened at that point yet?

He's not exactly wrong here. If the Democrats would stop playing nice and just put down the clown already, we wouldn't be having this problem.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1980_United_States_presidential_election Throughout the 1970s, the United States underwent a wrenching period of low economic growth, high inflation and interest rates, and intermittent energy crises.[3] By October 1978, Irana major oil supplier to the United States at the timewas experiencing a major uprising that severely damaged its oil infrastructure and greatly weakened its capability to produce oil.[4] In January 1979, shortly after Iran's leader Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi fled the country, Iranian opposition figure Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini ended his 14-year exile in France and returned to Iran to establish an Islamic Republic, largely hostile to American interests and influence in the country.[4] In the spring and summer of 1979, inflation was on the rise and various parts of the United States were experiencing energy shortages.[5] Carter was widely blamed for the return of the long gas lines in the summer of 1979 that was last seen just after the 1973 Yom Kippur War. He planned on delivering his fifth major speech on energy, but he felt that the American people were no longer listening... Biden will be a one term President. ... Copied to Clipboard!
