Gas prices

[indyartisan]

When is Holcomb going to remove the tax he added to the two dollar a gallon gas because he could not make ends meet with the low price?

Maybe my thinking is too simplistic, but if fossil fuels are a finite resource and we will still need them for the foreseeable future, then why is it not to our benefit to use up everyone else’s first.

If they stop making ammo tomorrow, I’d much rather shoot my neighbors supply for a price than break into mine to save money.

Then, when we suck everyone else dry, we can corner the market!!!

I have to admit I’ve thought about this before, but pretty sure it’s not quite that simple.

Keep in mind that in about 1976 we had found all the known oil reserves on the planet, and we would be out of oil by the year 2000, at current usage rates. According to the science experts.

Won’t matter anyway because at some point somebody is gonna suck a gallon of oil outa the ground and the whole thing (earth) is gonna collapse in a huge pile of dust!!

Has anyone thought about the idea that once we absorb all of these solar rays to heat our homes and run our cars and businesses that maybe there won’t be enough solar energy to actually heat the earth enough to live, or possibly grow food????

I only kinda, sorta, maybe, just a little, jest………..

Again, in 1976, the year I graduated HS we were looking at a bleak future of either freezing to death or starving to death, by the year 2000.

$3.99 at the station closest to us. Need to fill up the Jeep ASAP.

King Barack must be in heaven as his third term by remote control pushes gas prices to unaffordable levels as he tried to do during his first two terms.

Also, about oil running out, just like the deep freeze predicted to happen 10 year ago by another genius 30 years ago, in 1900 when the horse-less carriage hit the streets it was predicted that we would run out of oil in 1914. As new fields were found in Texas and elsewhere, the end of oil was pushed further back, and then we found oil in Alaska, and then we learned to extract hidden oil and natural gas by fracking, and then we found oil in shale, and we found bazillion barrels worth off shore.

Like many other things, it looks like the know-it-alls really don't, and we might even be wrong calling it "fossil fuel" as the earth continues to manufacture oil in ways we don't yet understand.

Remember, at one time people were thrown in jail or executed for daring to think that the sun didn't rotate around the earth.

She really thinks we are that stupid.

Gas prices rose $1.14 from Biden's inauguration to the day Putin invaded. https://t.co/z02ZrUznAr

We don`t know how "finite" fossil fuels are. They may last forever or they may only be around 500 more years. But in the interim, we want to use domestically produced oil because it`s cheaper, provides American jobs, and does NOT send money to our enemies...

This needs to be shouted for the highest mountain. On a loop. I don't want to quote myself, but I expressed this concern in Post #40 above.

Not to mention, when they run out or are seeming to, every industry will be under massive financial pressure to create alternatives.

This pressure will naturally fill the void in short order and do more for expanding "green" technologies than anything else imaginable.

There’s still almost 3 years of this s**t left so they can force us all into EV’s, or so they think.

I’ve noticed television is getting pounded with electric vehicle commercials all over the place and frequently. They make it sound so cool and dreamy to drive. Not to mention most of them look pretty funky . And I’ve noticed nearly every model has all this color changing LED glow panels in interior (wasting precious battery power). The dashboards are just leather coated panels with iPads stuck in them.

I don’t think it’s gonna work the way they want it to. EV is just not there for commercial and heavy equipment, so we’ll need gas to power those for a long time to come.

Guy at the station where I was topping off my Explorer was blaming the high gas price on Russia.

He didn't get it when I said "Let's go Brandon."

Ask that moron to explain gas prices all of 2021.

Decimal points matter.

1/3 + 1/3 + 1/3 = 1

1/3 = 0.333...

0.333... + 0.333... + 0.333... = 0.999...

0.999... = 1

Seems every generation has its own Malthusian narrative.

Oh and don't forget we the people of Indiana thought it was a wonderful idea to raise fuel tax by 10 cents a gallon not to Long ago.

So the gas station owner/operators are responsible for vandalism to their pumps, and can be fined?
By whom?

 

[Bugzilla]

Seems like under obummer when gasoline hit the $4.00 mark that was the tipping point where people had enough and the price seemed to miraculously stabilize just under $4.00 a gallon.
