Movin' on up - oil, that is. The rest of us are toast
2023-09-28
[HOT AIR] BREAKING: Crude oil prices surge toward $94 and are now trading at their highest levels since August 2022.

Oil prices are up 38% in just 3 months and the national average gas price is about to cross $4.00.

Furthermore, oil prices are now 35% ABOVE where the US wanted to refill the Strategic Petroleum Reserves (SPR).

Inventories in US reserves remain at their lowest levels since 1983.

If the US attempts to refill reserves now, we will see oil prices skyrocket.

What does the US do now as gas prices soar?[

#9  In Ga. its now $2.96 to $3.09 for Regular Ethanol per Gallon. Because Gov. Kemp eliminated the GA GAS tax ($0.30+/-) until sometime in Oct. Although Kemp is a Political opportunist weasel. He does understand a basic spending rule. "You got have it to spend it."

The lower prices will have people more likely to head out for food, restaurants, and stores sales. Which generate sales taxes and employment #'s will benefit going into the Holidays and the next scamdemic scare cycle.

#8  Democrats always tell the voters exactly what they plan to do, then the "polite" church-going white ladies vote for them anyway. That's why we end up with election results within the margin of the steal--guilt-ridden white people who ignore the words of the candidates they vote for.
