Gasoline costs 50% more in the US than it did before the Iran war

Unfortunately, gasoline woes will ripple through nearly every commodity or grocery that you partake in. If you're truly off grid, it probably won't do much. But as long as you shop from grocery stores or buy things period, you're gonna feel it a little. Not as much as a gas-guzzler, but you'll feel it.

It's not just gas. Any plastic.

My job is already seeing disposable gloves explode in price

Walkers, bikers, skateboarders, public transit riders, ...

Yeah a friend of mine was shocked when she asked me about my position on data centers and I basically told her IDGAF. I then had to remind her that I have a 21KW solar array and 45kwh of battery storage. My carbon usage is net negative.

You got it all wrong. This is Bidens fault!

Thanks Obanma!!!

“OBAMNA”

That's "Bah-rock WHO-SAYIN' Obamna" to you!

The same ones who harassed and terrorized drag queens for being groomers, they're outside the white house protesting the orange turd for and his cronies for being kid-diddlers right...right?

There's "iRAN up your gas!" Stickers being sold now, and I'm REALLY TEMPTED.

However the real transformation we gotta do is to move to more public transportation (which can also be electrified) but these budgets are all gone under Trump.

Yeah he really made my BYD and CATL investments take off.

It’s like he doesn’t understand markets, trade, geopolitics, or just basic business.

Not like we didn’t know that about him before he got elected. The first time.

To be completely fair to the americans complaining about fuel prices though. European prices are by design. Prices increasef in the 70's during the oil crisis, and afterwards we kept them high through taxation. We did that to give a larger incentive to oil reducing behavior like buying a car that drives longer per liter, or insulating your house better. This was to reduce our dependance in oil so another crisis wouldn't hit as hard.

USA didn't do that, because USA has/had plenty oil to support itself, and those regulations would mean less oil sales and thus less money for the giant oil companies. Wouldn't wanna take money out of the wallets of the poor rich cunts right?

So in short, Europe voted for less oil dependance because we don't produce a lot of it, USA voted for more, because their rich cunts have always controlled the government.

11.26 USD per gallon here in the Netherlands.

EU, gas is more expensive but they have a reasonable enough transportation system in most countries, of course like long distances you might need car instead.

$10.29/gallon at the cheapest gas station in my city.

That was peice before the war. It's 11 usd/gallon now

9.09 USD per gallon for diesel in Finland. Luckily the government pays my fuel.

And still about 30% of voters...

All because of blackmail controlling that low IQ pedo.

its by design, he already tried 2 other assasination attempt after the iran war started affect EVERYONE now to distract people. Todd blanche being suddenly replacing Pam bondi he needed a distraction from that, plus other portions of the files are being exposed. the MSM keeps reporting on his gaffes though as if its a "shocking thing" the resistance grifters arnt helping either, like BTC,,,,etc. Some in the DNC doesnt want it released either.

Nah, they have plenty of gas in Ghina.

unlikely, they plan to steal it . as the voting rights act just been gutted, lousiania already went foward at suspended some elections so they can purge voters, likewise with other gop states doing the same if ont already, remember KEMP he purged voter rolls just before being elected himself. THE DNC gambled for no ROI for ending all these shutdowns early and trying to attack zohran so early on.

at this point they dont even need to use ICE to intimidate people at purple areas, ICE is just there for propaganda for fox.

He needed the world to be looking elsewhere while he commits further atrocities in Gaza and Lebanon

And sadly, it has been very effective

I sincerely believe that he has serious dirt on Trump, but there's also the fact that Trump is a fucking moron who is easily manipulated by appeals to his ego and BiBi convinced him that it'd mean he would be remembered as a wartime leader

It's not helped by the fact that America is, by and large, a stupid country

This is so well written, thanks for sharing!

You meant "more important", right?

You're not immune. Don't forget, the machines that farm, process and deliver everything into your mouthhole all need to pay for fuel also.

I drive 30,000+ miles a year because of a shitty commute and driving a couple hundred miles out of town most weekends to help my parents.

And since I rent I really can't go electric.

To be clearly, only about a 1/3rd of us voted for him. And realistically, of the registered voters, only a small percentage can actually influence the outcome by way of being in “swing states”.

But yah, I’m pretty fucking pissed at pensilvanians who wrote in Mickey Mouse because they thought it was funny.

I’m personally not that upset about gas prices going up as I can not afford a car anyways.

You clearly don’t understand how fucked up voting in “the cradle of democracy is.” The American government and the rich will do anything and everything in their power to disenfranchise voters. Just do a little deep dive into how fucking stupid our electoral procedures are and what they are designed to do.

What you're experiencing is why most other nations in the world are stepping up their adoption of renewable energy and electric vehicles. You can't plan effectively with this kind of volatility in your energy costs.

But here in the US it's far more important for fossil fuel companies to make profits, even if doing so causes a recession.

I hope it backfires and increases gen z and alpha support for building out public transit. Viable Metro systems in every US city, commuter rail across all 50 states and national high-speed rail system. If we have those things, who cares how much gas costs

Donald Trump, greatest agent of the Green Energy Revolution in our lifetime.

You missed the George Bush Jr era highs. $8+/gal in California. Even Houston, Texas pumps were charging north of $6. That was shortly before the 2006 mid-term bloodbath. Mysteriously, prices absolutely tanked just before the election, then rebounded a few weeks after the polls closed - not that it saved anyone.

Don't worry. The last boat just parked in California and they say they're good for the next six weeks. So I'm sure everything is going to be fine going forward.

Your gas bill's testimony

Those people aren't here

I'm with you but a little more extreme: I hope Aermica contracts a virus or genetic condition that limits reproduction to .05% of previous so the world can start to heal without nuking us,

Where is Jessica Hyde?

they will likely flee the country when people finally come for thier heads.

If our fellow americans, the staunch supporters of our dementia patient pedo pres, could read they would be very upset. Your lazy life isnt hard, you must not work as much as a hard working billionaire, psh. And Ill be one myself someday if my hat is red enough! Pull yourself up by your bootstraps and work a 12th job! 4th? I cant read.

Especially when you consider that their fuel is actually pretty cheap

Real question, no shade at all, just ignorance - why premium? What sort of vehicle is that ideal for, and what is the advantage?

Yeah I could Google but I'm more interested in a human's thoughts

If sleepy Joe hadn't stole the 2020 election trump could have invaded Iran 5 years ago and it would have already been over by now!!1! Thanks Obama

Republicans: Crickets

Crickets? More like thunderous applause.

Hell, even some SuckDems were getting in on the "They probably bombed themselves with their own Tomahawk missiles. But even if they didn't it all worked out because dead child Iranians can't grow up to be adult terrorists."

“I rather pay higher costs in gas as long as it means we’re safe!”

If you don't live in one of the two biggest towers in NYC, you're probably going to be fine.

As an Iranian, I have known this war is coming for 25 years. Iran has done everything in its power to avoid it, but unfortunately it's only a real deterrence that is going to work to keep Iran safe. I'm sorry that makes your acquaintances fell unsafe.

Interesting way to announce your permenant Hermitage.

Unfortunately it’s not going down for a long time.

87 to 121 cents per liter roughly, prices varied widely around the country, but roughly that as an average. 3$ per gallon to 4.50$ per gallon.

healthcare increased when the extended subsidies ended from covid, that was removed when SCHUMER ended the shutdown early. almost immediately, from the insurance subs in our area, they reported a drastic increase in premiums for ACA plans.

I get this is a joke. But Miatas are surprisingly inefficient, given their low weight and displacement. You're better off with a Civic, Corolla, Elantra, etc. Miatas are more about smiles per gallon.

Nobody ever stopped doing anything because an angry person online told them to.

like work?
