| #6 Here, we are much too civilized for such things like holding elected officials actually accountable for inflicting ruinous socialism on us.... Speak for yourself. You have no idea what will happen when things get really bad. |

| #5 I expect natural gas supplies to tighten up the same as oil. I say we give those natural gas supplies a good squirt of WD-40. And if that don't work, than it's time for some acetone and transmission fluid. Having spent the last few centuries climbing out of poverty, seems a shame to piss it away for a silly idea. |

| #3 in case you are wondering, the production of natural gas in the US has remained stable in 2021 and the US produces essentially all the natural gas it needs regarding price, except for a spike in Feb 2021, due to the Arctic weather in the south, the US price of natural gas has also remained stable this is not the case with oil where the price is up about 40% in 2021; coal prices are also up in the US but I can't get a recent precise figure |

| #2 Welcome to the consequences of cascading world supply chain failure after 18 months of government shutdown everything policy to "protect us". In less civilized nations I fully anticipate public vigilante demonstrations of "Lamppost Therapy" for their public officials which may correct the problem rather abruptly! Here, we are much too civilized for such things like holding elected officials actually accountable for inflicting ruinous socialism on us.... |
