$5 Gas... It's De-Ja-Vu All Over Again...

[walrus]

Every country in the world will feel it. It is entirely irrational to blame Biden. The Russians were emboldened to attack in the first place because of the incompetence and corruption (and flat our treachery) of the GOP.

The Dems should get ahead of this and immediately saturate the mob consciousness with the fact that this is the chickenhawks coming home to roost for years of GOP-NRA-Putin gape porn.

The buck stops here and always has, rational or not

It isn't going to help, thats for sure. Living in Maine, oil is whats for heat in most places. Heating oil at 5 bucks a gallon is going to hurt big time. I'm sure Natty Gas is going to follow.

And that will likely bone the Democrats in November. Gas prices heading in the right direction were really helping.

Could you please replace yourself with ScrappyDoo until after the election?

Tell my why I'm wrong?

Already did. 50 cents in about 5 hours.

OPEC planning to cut production. Meanwhile US reserves almost to minimum. Thus, gas prices will be headed up soon.

We just will become Russia2, where our oligarchs feast off the profits, and everyone who used to earn 600k and under a year are practically homeless.

Become?

Dissolve? No. We just will become Russia2, where our oligarchs feast off the profits, and everyone who used to earn 600k and under a year are practically homeless.

Many many "states" that were part of the Soviet Union split off. You don't think that will happen here?

[aparch]

Republicans called in a favor and Saudi Arabia and Russia (OPEC Central) was more than happy to comply. I expect the United States to dissolve in less than 10 years at this rate.

It's going to be really interesting with gas creeping up again. Currently it's $4.59 for me...

I'm sure the R's will start playing this card openly and freely as we head into midterms. We all know how this can creep up as the #1 issue for many folks, regardless as to what else is floating around in their head.

I've been wondering what ever happened to vanadium batteries. Remember reading they were some massive breakthrough back in college.

[walrus]

I'm the one saying "large scale energy storage" is the missing link for the last decade or so.
