Surprisingly we are seeing a DROP leading up to ~~Black~~ WOKE Friday Shopping, the day after ~~Thanksgiving~~ 1619 day.

Seriously
we have dropped from 3.21 to 3.09 in my area.
SAMS Club is down from 3.12 to 2.81 here.

I guess even Socialcrats know they need 2022 Election donations and companies need to make $$$$$ in order to donate.

#2 They know that undoing the 'executive orders' they put in effect in January would reduce cost, but they refuse. Yes, its being done intentionally.

#3 Market forces can be tricky to interpret, but consider that the massive price spikes have dampened demand and the lagging indicator of tiny price reductions might be reflecting both big-oil attempts to offload building supply and score some media/political relief?
Make no mistake, the political agenda for the Marxists remains to destroy the remnants of capitalism, genuine American independence and the traditional American economy to produce a client state for the Middle Kingdom, feeding it raw materials, agriculture, and a kowtowing market for cheap manufactured goods with short economic life.

#4 As I understand it, we have started selling oil from our SPR to Asia --- sounds like 'on purpose' to me.
