How much is your local "Trump at the Pump Tax?"

which is exactly what they want

 

Sure is a lot of whining around here! At least we have a good reason for higher fuel prices, this time.

What was Biden's excuse in June 2022 when gasoline hit $5.00???

I think the Good Lord EVERY DAY Kamala wasn't elected.....she would've been worse than Al Gore or Hillary Clinton combined.

 

Um, a not-too-surprising, and quickly resolved, mismatch between stimulated demand and supply reestablishment while trying to accomplish recovery from a deep pandemic downturn?

 

Right, that also was happening in petroleum markets at the same time economies were working to recover from the pandemic downturn....

 

I grew up in Oklahoma where 120 mile round trip for a quart of milk was normal. Regardless, frequent stops helps a lot.

And how does that help me pay $1,250/month medical insurance for house keeper?

How about gas from Caddy that toes her business trailer?

We still need to eat so how cheap when the food is grown, harvested, and delivered with diesel?

The pain today is real and getting worse versus your ‘straw man’ that never happened. So I will vote my wallet in November.

Because I drive EVs, I don’t remember it reaching $5 in Huntsville. One month reads like “cherry picking”. So I checked:


The show a much lower average for the years 2021-2024.

“whining” reminds me that family member Mary Trump reports Donald’s favorite game was “make the baby cry.” Is that yours too?

Looking for Liberal tears staining the ballots come November? Early indications they will be tears of joy.

Nothing personal Bob, but anyone that uses that psychotic woman as a reference for anything is an idiot.

 

Thanks for clearing up who's the psychotic one in that family.

 

Discussing Mary Trump:

This prompted me to read the Wiki and it revealed that family has a lot of ‘issues.’ But their issues don’t change what a collection of misfits. Small wonder Donald is such a sociopath.

As for Mary, even paranoids have enemies. The biggest fight being over Fred’s dead bones. She is the black sheep of that nest of vipers… more credible than the rest.

Still “make the baby cry” pretty well describes how the sociopath treats those next to him. For that back biting family, cruelty is what one expects.

Acts more like a dementor sucking the soul out of that poor man.

Only when his hands glow and a winged, horned entity floats in the air above him.

Then I'm usually praying for him to stop doing that, because my insurance always declines it as out-of-network.

 

$4.40 at the Costco just now. Spotted some $4.70-4.80 on the way back.

It costs us most of a gallon to go to Costco and back in the Prius.

 

Maybe it would be better just to allow Muslim terrorists around the street of Hormuz to go on killing, raping, kidnapping, & holding a good portion of the world hostage.
Put another way, why are people crying that love electric cars and plug-ins? Isn't that what they SHOULD want? Higher prices so people will be prodded into doing g the right thing? Get more efficient vehicles? Or take public transportation?
And why try to slip in a FHOP(olitics) topic where it doesn't belong?
Lastly, why cry about five or $6 a gallon gas like California pays when much of the world pays a couple bucks more than that?
If people want to cry - they ought to consider a continuously deflated dollar value which means that if I was buying gas as a 10-year-old to mow the neighbors (in 1965), it would only be 50¢/ gallon
So let me go get a tissue so we can wipe those tears

.

 

All I can say regarding gas prices is that I'm darn glad we got both of our kids a Prius when they moved out of state. Daughter has our old 2012 Prius C. Son has an original Gen3 Prius plugin ( he doesn't plug it in though ). I also have retained my 2012 "daily driver" Prius v wagon ( pictured on the left ). All of them are still going strong, and all are still on the original batteries.

I also have plenty to say about the current administration, very little of it good, so I'll refrain. Just not worth it to argue politics on here!

 

A start:

The previous post implied there are no problems, just complaints and since your ox wasn’t being gored … but this is a crack, we share this concern.

So how did the dollar become funny money in reverse chronological order? Anything recent like since January 2025?
