This administration is a lesson in abject silliness. Everyone knows that Joe Biden has no clue who or what is being done in the energy policy of his administration; heck, he could not even name his Interior Secretary. That said, whoever controls his Twitter account is now just making him look even more stupid as Biden blames the gas stations.

I would draw attention to the most overlooked quote from Joe Biden as it pertains to gas prices. This statement was made May 23, 2022, and it proves he knows the gas price is directly related to his choice to implement the Green New Deal by executive policy:
…”Here’s the situation. And when it comes to the gas prices, we’re going through an incredible transition that is taking place that, God willing, when it’s over, we’ll be stronger and the world will be stronger and less reliant on fossil fuels when this is over.”… [source]

What’s silly is how passively and obediently MAGA Nation is accepting the criminal rule of The Junta.
As if none of the IN YOUR FACE questions about how this was allowed to happen need to be asked anymore. As if the BLATANT CRIMINALITY of nearly everything the Dims have done since and up to Nov3 2020 need be prosecuted or even investigated. As if an America without voting rights was an acceptable “New Normal”. This is not the MAGA Nation I remember from 2016-2020. This is a MAGA Nation that – with an infinitesimal number of rare exceptions – has chosen to bend the knee and say “President Biden”.
The midterms will be rigged with the same methods and by the same thugs who stole Nov3. And not a soul is doing anything about it. Cheers! Here’s to Hopium and the next “Red Wave”…
I beg to differ about passive obedience. There is quite a bit of disobedience, yet it gets no airtime. There are many other things occurring that makes the left and their media whores crazy – like Blexit (no coverage), Hispanic rejection of the democrat-socialist party (no coverage) and so many SCOTUS victories that the professional protestors /agitators are exhausted. Please see someone about your battered conservative syndrome after Independence Day. And think about things YOU can do besides hope. Hope is never a strategy. It’s about as passive as one can be.
I’m not 100% sure whether your outlook or Halley’s is more correct, but I recognize some truth in both your opinions. One thing I do know for sure is the very fact that we’re having this discussion the day before we celebrate the signing of the Declaration of Independence is a sign that America is in dire straits.
I agree with Halley. Opposition to the Leftist agenda by our “leaders” is all but non=existent.
JC: The only “leader” is you. And me. And the rest of us.
Mike Lindell is suing Dominion, but these people are not cowed by anything. What they steal will be difficult for them to keep. We are not a peaceful, sleepy nation and they are ruining the middle class.
On the most important issue — the stolen election — SCOTUS was silent. From that, all else follows.
Things are being done, we just don’t control the media and I think it’s better that it is happening under the radar. Many local office positions on the ballot run unopposed and more of us are infiltrating the system. We can’t reverse 30 years or more of anti-American Marxist filth infiltrating the system in 2 years! Our enemies are dedicated fanatical sickening pedo commie foot soldiers. We need to eat, sleep, sh*t and think our politics 24/7 if we are going to beat them. We can beat them because we are smarter when we put our minds to something. More and more normies are waking up. Hit them in their wallet and they start paying attention. People can see that his is not just politics as usual but something strange, antithetical to their best interests. When I tell people we are living in an occupied country like Vichy France they are starting to agree with me.
Yes, Sundance says put sand int the machinery but I’ve stepped it up to glue. If you find the key won’t work it might have been me.
Sugar is a drier alternative. Once crystallized makes for interesting situations.
In defense of MAGA nation, there were very powerful controls put in place to undercut any opposition to the Bai D3n junta. Remember the walls they put up around Washington to explain the lack of crowds for the Pretender? Remember how they tortured the National Guard who were ordered to attend? Brave MAGA people who refused to shut up about D0minion like Sidney Powell were sued for billions in 0bama’s star chamber courts. Just last week saw a d33p stat3 0perative crowing about the amazing quality of D0minion’s legal team. As John le Carre said–or was it Juvenal?–who watches the watchers?
Disagree. Find out what Catherine Engelbrecht & Gregg Phillips are busy doing for 1 thing. None of what is going on to secure our Nov. vote is in or on Fake News (including Fox). If you want Patriots marching in the streets and threatening officials, you don’t understand the battleground.
You are right, PegC. True The Vote’s forensic work is very high quality. If you read Mollie Memingway’s Rigged and then watch 2000 Mules, you can gain a very clear picture of how the Great Steal of 2020 was carried out. The silence of Fox News on this is deafening.
Bingo!
Has anyone heard anything about the bombshell expose they are supposed to reveal? I thought it would/should be out by now.
If you aren’t already, I suggest you become a member of an activist group for changing the laws of your local and state government. I read your comment and it seems like you are not involved and assuming that nothing is being done or you are totally frustrated with the work you have done so far.
Last year in Missouri a bunch of groups went to the state capitol to lobby for changes to election rules/methods etc..
Back and forth, 2 hour drive each way to attend committee meetings and offer testimony FOR cleaning up voting process. We thought we had it in the bag since we had a Republican majority in both houses… but nope!
The guy who runs the senate (pres pro tem) wouldn’t even let the bills come to a vote! He instead wanted a gas tax…which will hit us soon, if not already. Totally frustrated us all and many legislators too!
But guess what, bills chugged through again and Missouri governor just signed an election bill. Voter ID, no drop boxes or mail in ballots, paper ballots for next Presidential election, …more.
My point is, people are doing things…the peaceful(!!) way. It’s not dramatic I know. Seems too many want drama. ha
A couple of years ago, our county GOP executive committee voted to censure our ambitious tool of a state rep who happens to reside in this county. The other 5 counties in the state house district did the same. The rep and his people were able to stop that freight train using a procedural technicality.
Last year, the rep announced his re-election bid. The county GOP opposed him again. The county was involved in a redistricting which would have pitted him against a strong opponent from a bigger place. He did not have the support of party in his own hometown. He decided to spend more time with his family.
Grassroots is where it’s at.
God Bless the Flyover Country heartland!
❤️
Excellent work- congratulations!
Thank you Seneca. BTW, I’ve been praying for you and your kids ever since your post regarding family politics…couple of weeks ago.
Great response FarmerRen!
That is exactly what we are doing down here in Florida, I joined a Patriot group many months ago. I have learned there are many ‘Patriot groups’ all over Florida and people are very active with local elections and sending emails/letters to our State and Federal representatives.
For the next election in my county, there are 4 (out of 9) School Board positions up for re-election and we have our own ‘like-minded’ candidates running for each position. Hopefully we can get a few of them elected and start replacing the School Board.
Any elected position in the county we will be focused on, Mayor’s race, City Council, Sheriff, etc. We meet at least once a week and coordinate with other groups in different counties to stay active and involved.
You are correct it is not dramatic nor is it talked about in the MSM (probably a good thing), it’s peaceful, legal and we will keep this county red…Yes people are doing things. 😉
I think Halley is still going through the 5 stages of Grief over the 2020 election. I am way past that now, yes I am still mad AF, but we can’t just sit on our collective arses and be mad AF with a ‘scowl face’ all day long.
The changes we are seeking are not going to happen over-night, it will be a process over several election cycles. No more sitting at home and hoping ‘somebody good comes along’, get active, find like-minded people and run your own candidates.
Hedsmun, your group and mine are almost carbon copies! Lots of local involvement. We even get ourselves placed on civic boards. Dems thought of that long ago. Now we are influencing where local $$ is spent and even what books and speakers are allowed at or county library.
Good work and enjoy our Independence Day!
Halley:
The Media (including Fox) and the Internet control most communication. So messaging is through select pathways.
I am not aware of many Maga supporters who have accepted the in-your-face Steal of the Election. Tell me after the Midterms if they’ve stolen it again.
Biden’s gaggle of corrupt officials started a war to create a diversion of their dismantling of the remaining productive economic engine in Middle America, with the foolish thought that that would help them in the Midterms.
What useful suggestions would you offer to push back the “junta”?
It seems most of us are waiting to see if giving voting one more chance is useful. That failing, you may see action, but if you check the social/ political temperature of the under 30 crowd, even a win is likely a short term event. This war for the soul of America has been ongoing in our education and other government systems for many decades. No long term solution seems apparent.
Take it to the streets now and continue it. ‘Politics’ definition is ‘the Arte of using power’, that is, the technique by which power is applied. There is nothing inherently good or bad about it. The effects of using a particular technique can be for the common good or not. If we are to take the country back, we need the open public display of power in the streets, peacefully, and then at the ballot box, and hopefully not at that other box. Take it to the streets with numbers. Strongly worded letters and signs, and destruction of people or property, are not needed. Let the numbers speak. Do it.
Maybe you should get out and see what we are doing. We ARE making a difference, even if we don’t capitalize it
IMO petroleum based fuel will be rationed and possibly only be allowed for “essential” vehicles, like government workers and Amazon delivery trucks. We will be told to use public transportation for the “war” with Russia.
Wouldn’t mind using public transportation were public order maintained, but Democrats don’t do that…
The have two major rationing schemes to dust off to implement rationing beyond the fuel rationing scheme of Oil Embargo’s … WWI, 1917 to 1919 and WWII, 1940 to 1946.
Both schemes were planned and implemented by democrat administrations, supported 100% by the media of the day and bought into by the US Voters as NECESSARY.
ALL Public Services mandated by the rationing will require massive infusions of Tax Payer Infrastructure investment , no matter which wing of the Uni-Party is in charge.

Countries that produce oil aren’t going to terminate their cash cow to transition to Green Energy .
Countries like China and India won’t hamstring their economies with expensive, unreliable Green Energy.
FILTHY LIBERALS -Canada already shut down our Oilsands. But we feel so good about ourselves. FJT
Unfortunately, there is no such thing as “green” energy. It’s a myth from which certain politically aligned interests are profiting. If the authorities were genuinely trying to reduce dependence on fossil fuels, they’d be building nuke plants as fast as possible.
In demanding that gas stations, or whomever sets gas prices (according to his statement), lower their prices, Biden is exhibiting panic. Knowing that his whole plan to destroy the fossil fuel industry counts on political success, and knowing that he is less popular than Nixon during Watergate, he is in full panic mode. We have 2.5 years to put up with him, but once he loses Congress, the gig is up. He has only a few months to do the damage that he came to do. Will the RINOs help his program along? He can’t trust them any more than MAGA folks. Can he trust the FBI, the leaders of which know that he is sinking, to come to his aid? Time for the illegitimate regime to panic.
In defense of Pr3tender J03, panic is his most attractive quality.
The establishment RINO OligarchWhore Houses have been helping all along. There’s been over $4T in spending & a raise in the debt ceiling & no operational budget yet.
Xiden was never intended to last beyond 1-21-23.

Who here doesn’t have a grocery store cents-off rewards card for gas from some grocery store?
The grocery stores are selling gas at a dead loss. Mine allows up to $1.00 off per gallon for up to 30-gallons. All the money is made getting you into the store to get you to buy more to boost your fuel points.
About the only time those fuel stations tied to grocery stores make a few cents per gallon is when a traveler with no rewards card passes through and fills up. Then they make about 3-cents per gallon or so.
Yes, about 3 to 6 cents per dollar margin on average, according to a friend of mine who is in the gas station industry.
Oil companies take 5 cents a dollar
Biden and the commies take 20 cents a dollar
He croons over big oil getting rich
May the turd trip and fall harder
You left off the average 10-15 cents per dollar taken up by State and Local Taxes.
Plus, the FEDS collect that 20 cents per gallon at least 3 x … oil company to distributor, distributor to gas station … gas station to consumer.
I buy gift cards to stores that I’m going to use anyway when I’m at the grocery store. That counts towards my fuel discounts. It’s amazing how quick it increases my savings without buying anything else.
I buy the gift cards I use when it is 4x fuel points. I have also used in the past when I made major purchases at Home Depot (with the added 4x ). I have $3 off for the 30 gallon this month. I do not shop consistently at this store and always sales items–I do look for the 4x points.
Actually they are able to sell at a loss because of big data. They sell the data collected on you from your shopping habits, as well as using it themselves.
Just like people who take pictures of receipts to get checks in the mail (Rakuten, etc). All big data selling your information. Facebook? Same…
That too, Okie.
I mentioned the 30 gallons at maybe $1.00 per gallon because that’s $30 bucks!
They sure as heck aren’t getting their $30 bucks back just by selling you more canned green beans. 😉
–
–
Anyhow, we’ve wandered only slightly O/T with the fuel points discussion, but to add to Sundance’s ridicule of the demand that fuel stations lower their prices…
…Ha! and Double Ha!
Grocery store fueling stations are already selling at a loss. All the pResident’s Men can dream on. They are clueless, totally clueless. There will be no lowering of prices at those places.
–
Next up, price controls since fuel stations *ahem* refuse to lower their prices.
And if taken to the limit (as we say in math) what better way of killing off fossil fuels than driving service stations bankrupt. If I can’t buy gas I cant drive my gas powered car.
“All the money is made getting you into the store to get you to buy more to boost your fuel points.”
I have such a card but use it very little. I certainly wouldn’t use it to try to “boost fuel points”. That’s no different than spending way too money on clothing and appliances just because they’re on sale.
Apparently, however, (based on the ads being run) a sizable % of the population doesn’t know that their homeowner’s policy won’t cover replacement of the AC or that auto insurance won’t cover the replacement of the transmission.
Seems like a pretty mean tweet to me
As CS Lewis said…
“Now the trouble about trying to make yourself stupider than you really are is that you very often succeed.”
Just when one thinks these first world ignoramuses have finally reached peak stupidity, they shove their mascot out to publicly display that they haven’t.
Corrupt ol’ Joe should not be using the Lord’s name in vain.
Just like him to pass the buck. That’s all he does.
….and he uses the Lord’s name in vain every chance he gets. In his dementia, he acts like an adolescent who thinks it’s cool to swear and swagger. What a jerk.
I don’t recall congress declaring war?
Makes the resident fool sound like he’s turned over his responsibilities to the immature teenagers in his administration.
When was the last time Joe Biden drove a car, or filled a gas tank? Does he even have a license
I expect he has given up on bike riding now as well. Perhaps he can manage stroll on the beach, if the tide does not knock him over.
https://makeagif.com/gif/laugh-in-tricycle-rkSNl3
Tide? I think he’d need to worry about a breeze first 😉
As far as I know the old hypocrite still has his classic 1960s corvette convertible. He drove it with Jay Leno when he was VP. I tell people as a sign of his good faith being eco-green, he should sell it to me.
As obtuse as this tweet is, it demonstrates that his handlers can’t trust him to make any persuasive oral statements. They’ve finally noticed that every time FJB opens his pudding hole the likelihood of a midterm bloodbath goes up. So now they’ve gone back to the basement. They will continue to lob anecdotal tweets and roll out surrogates and avoid questions in hopes that will cut their losses.
Look for another Vanity Fair spread soon.
OKI Dopey: Vanity Fair. Very true. May a nice feature on Dr. Jill’s summer entertaining schedule.
Good friends have a couple of convenience stores. They say $.10 per gallon is the average profit. Biden continues to blame others for his own doing. He’s pathetic. Or at least his handlers are. Barry most likely.
The people who are running Biden are obviously a combination of Deep State – entirely accustomed to their fat government pensions – and Academics, who know nothing at all.
Stolen elections have consequences, and you’d better start fixing the problem at its source. If these people find that they can steal your government(!) away from you and get away with it, they will destroy it.
9/3/22 at midnight it will be legal for all the states to destroy any remaining evidence of the 2020 steal….
T hought they already destroyed the evidence?
Dominion likely (and illegally) has. Tina Peters and Colorado are great examples. Dominion contractor goes in for an “update”, and after this update the data is gone
This is a time of war and global peril only because the World Order wannabes think the chaos of war will allow them to do further damage to this country and empower themselves further. It is a pure line of propaganda.
Perhaps in the DC bubble the “war” with Russia has begun, but they have not got the people behind them.
Those in power pushing war are truly possessed by evil, dreams of power, wealth. They will wake to their own destruction if they get their way.

“The world up until this point was free”
This was good. About working your tail off, getting food and a roof over your head like a good slave. This strategy used to work, until the controllers felt it isn’t working anymore and substituted promotion of “safety” instead of promotion of “freedom”. And now you can be arrested for saying things that are “unsafe”
Wow! Bunch of idiots running the show now. The price of gas hasn’t changed hardly one bit. What changed was the value of the U.S. petrodollar. It’s roughly half the value it was three years ago. The context being that ‘ONE’ petrodollar federal reserve note was roughly worth under five cents in 2017 compared to a ‘ONE’ dollar silver certificate, US DOLLAR based on the gold standard in 1914. Which means it is probably just worth two cents now.
Oh, and the international banking cartel did this intentionally and have no intention to fix it to return a US dollar to its 1914 valuation. Yet I’ll say digital currency isn’t an option in today’s world. The prospect that they’ll just shut down your account at the bank isn’t a viable solution as most Canadians realized this February when they tried to petition their national government.
This current system has been made to be untenable. Therefore it will have to be totally annihilated. All debt has to be completely wiped clean. Reset before the world can continue on where normal business relations can begin again.
This was supposed to be the model for every jubilee (Leviticus 25.23-38) where every 50th year all debt is erased and every servant, slave is to be set free. Some believe we are in a Jubilee year that will end by October 1st. But instead the criminal international banking cartel has not only not forgiven any debt, they’ve decreased the value of currency by so much that any debt can be continued in perpetuity while creating a permanent class of people forever in a state of involuntary servitude to serve payments into a bottomless debt coffer. That is a system that must be destroyed, and it is about to be destroyed because “NOTHING CAN STOP WHAT’S COMING”.

Watched City of Ember last night, which was surprisingly good. It features Bill Murray as an unctuous, incompetent, and Bai D3n-esque mayor who bamboozles the population and looks out for himself as the city he leads fails. Bai D3n’s unparalleled incompetence of course makes Murray look like Winston Churchill in comparison.
Whoever controls Xiden’s twatter account is a hard core communist.
No business can sell its major product for cost. Even charities have operational expenses.
Why aren’t the Republicans screaming from the tallest building to impeach this corrupt old POS? And I don’t want to hear about how they don’t have the votes. It doesn’t matter. They should make their voices heard. I guarantee you the DNC would in their place.
Two words: Kamala Harris.
sleep/creepy joeBamas’ life insurance policy
The only “screaming” from Republicans that I see these days is is their donation solicitations exclaiming how bad everything is and that they need our money because the DemocRATs are raising more money than them. They act like they are poor outsiders with no power unless we send them money.
I am pretty sure they get paid rather handsomely along with perks that are worth multiple times their annual pay from our tax dollars to fight these issues on a full time basis. Corrupt con artists; all of them.
Mad Maxine Waters was screaming for impeachment on Trump’s Inauguration Day. She was a member of the minority party in the House at the time, and she never stopped.
…maybe someone missed a class in economics 101 – when the supply and ‘demand’ was discussed with students.
As such, did some one miss interpret ‘demand’ and think that it mean$ coer$ion etc. ?( see Aug 2021 gene therepy treatment coercion speech by brandon or handlers)
Maybe someone thinks that ‘unity’- see 2021 inauguration speech -means forced conformance?
( amongst a lot of things when just plagiarizing as a child, for instance -the coer$ion of others – to miss get grade$ to miss look good – for (non) ‘unifying’ fairnes$
at the co$ts of less honesty, less knowledge / understanding, less equal opportunity – for the? selfish sake of more time to ‘socialize’ while pretending that getting good grades is easy
( while networking with others to cheat )? ).
Some can see the result of miss leaders with that kind of miss education. ( combined with a corrupted media miss providing news )
Some can not see the difference.

Like “record players”, Biden thinks gas stations still exist. I can’t remember the last time I saw an actual “gas station.” Of course, Biden probably can’t remember the last time he pumped his own gas.
Gas stations have long been replaced by convenience stores who make pennies on the dollar per gallon of fuel. Their profits are derived from the sales of snacks, beer, ice, drinks, etc.
As though service station owners have any control over the price of fuel. Do these people really believe we’re THAT stupid?
Absolutely! Just like Lester Holt said on the msm news last year, “ the transmission of the virus seems to be coming from the unvaccinated.”They want to manipulate us in every way. God only knows what all they’re doing and what this end game is. If electric cars are so great, then one would think Biden would be traveling in an electric airplane!
Now up to 141.8k likes.
Nation of dummies.
Bots. posing as dummies.
They are definitely bots, they probably have a timed percentage that are programmed to like by a certain time. (To make it seem more real.) The whole other problem you have is foreigner likes, which should not be allowed on his account at all.
“This is a time of war and Global Peril” brought to you by the moronic, evil zealots running Joe Biden.
Weird tweet. Coming from his side, I would think the messaging would be more like “this is a very difficult time but after this unavoidable phase there is a bright future ahead so now it’s time to heroically sacrifice for your country with like we did in WW2.”.
I would think that would be how the green utopians would want to frame current times to keep the masses placated, but instead he just says “give us the gas”. Odd.
Biden continues to frame himself as a wartime president.
No, Joe. Not unless you are counting your chosen war against the American citizens.
Wonder if he is including Afghanistan
“Biden continues to frame himself as a wartime president.”
This seems so true.
I guess the question becomes – will the framing hold up? A lot is riding on the November outcome.
Maybe he could tweet the airlines to run on time while he is at it….. how’s he coming with curing cancer?

We went from ‘mean tweets’ to threatening tweets. “Do it now.” That is an implicit threat used by someone exerting (generally ill-gotten) control.
A dictator barking orders.
The D RATS always blame everybody else for their failures.
Sounds like someone is positioning for a presidential run.
Bezo’s flipped on these traitors when Obama started shaking him down via BLM. Bezo’s was doing Amazon donations until he realized the BLM was pronounced as a Fraud and money was being laundered. He had to shut down the BLM donations from Amazon because he can’t knowingly donate to fraudulent charities. Obama started sending his goons out after Bezo’s when that happened. Threatening unionization of Amazon, etc.
Someone Controlling the Twitter Account of Joe Biden is Demanding Gas Stations Lower Prices, Because He Said So
Rest in the Vine: “DO IT NOW!” Screams Emperor Caligula Robinette to Freeborn Americans
Every time this traitorous heathen says, “God willing” his life should be shortened by a year and his death made more excruciating before he goes to the Lake of Fire for eternity.
Climate-change Globalists are nut balls, and not even coherent with their own.
Context: The rest of the G7 autocrats are thumping the table for price caps on Russian oil.
Don’t be surprised if a narrative arises saying that crude oil is priced in the global market so each country must cap crude prices in their own countries.
The same guy who, back in April, increased the federal royalty rate for new oil leases to 18.75% from 12.5% ( a 50% jump) is demanding that gas stations operate at breakeven?
https://www.npr.org/2022/04/16/1093195479/biden-federal-oil-leases-royalties
What does the random collection of words in this tweet by a twit even mean? Zhou Bai-den wants gas stations to charge their wholesale price at the pump? An independent gas station pays in advance for a tanker. The station charges enough to pay for the next tanker, keep the lights on, pay the rent, the employees, the city/state/fed taxes and don’t forget future storage tank remediation fund. In other words, Zhou wants them all to go broke this summer? Demented old fool could not even figure out how to pump his own gas.
Here is a link to a Gateway Pundit article about oil price increases:
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2022/07/biden-g7-fraternity-threaten-devastate-worlds-economy-analysts-warn-oil-prices-jump-380-barrel/
In the article, GP says a 3 million barrel a day cut in Russian oil exports would raise the price of a barrel of oil to $190.
What happens in the end of October when Biden’s sale of 1 million barrels a day of Strategic Oil Reserve ends?
When do people start talking about this? …discussions leading to the mid-terms?
Notice his timing, they want gas to go up so nobody can (supposedly vote in person, LMAO)
I am thinking there is more to this than meets the eye.
FJB + coke-freak son + Ukraine + illegal possession of a firearm +”Money for nuthin’= SCANDAL that congress and executive branch toadies and media ignore.
FJB (stoopid bassturd) shuts off the energy source to millions + millions + millions and has no SOLID plan to replace it much less pay money for somebody else to do it.
Ruble goes UP. Dollar goes down.
FJB + money + money + money + money + money + money = WAR.
FJB.
.
It all adds up after all.
“Bring down the price you are charging at the pump to reflect the cost you’re paying for the product.”
The price of any commodity is reflective of its replacement cost and entrepreneurs anticipate replacement costs will be much higher for oil than historic costs.
This is because the Congress, at Joe Biden’s bidding, released a tidal wave of free money into a faltering economy while simultaneously restricting oil production.
Everyone knew the consequences: dollar depreciation and escalating replacement costs.
Now the oil companies are being blamed for bad monetary policy.
Waiting for Creepy Uncle Brandon to make similar demands of the drug companies.
Waiting…waiting…waiting…
Never mind.
Here’s a better one, bring down the price of Electric cars so the consumer can afford one ( and the property taxes on them as well.) Come one Joey no Brains, you can do it… make Electric cars $10,000 a wop…. LOL.

Soon joe will form a new cabinet department to rewrite history.
There has been a small decrease locally from $4.99 to $4.75 in the last week. This is diddly squat — but wait until after the 4th of July Holiday. It crept quick immediately following Memorial Day. All optics and psych messaging – like his insane tweet.
Fortunately we don’t drive much so only fill up once every few weeks. It was $4.79 here then, this morning I was surprised to see $4.19. Now if only we could dump Cornyn.
My first REAL job was gas station attendant at Tom Terry’s EXXON … and he made so little $$$ … that he paid me $1.90/hr in 1972. Of course, gasoline was $0.42/gal. … but still … I could barely pay for a weekly dinner with my girlfriend. He was clearly CHEATING me … and the driving public. He could afford to cut gas prices to $0.38/gal … but would have had to cut my hours in half … or pay me $1.65/hr.
Leftist cult members don’t understand ECON 101. Let alone ECON 100
Service-station owners make between 7 and 10 cents on every gallon of gas they sell. That sure tells me that the service-station owners aren’t the problem.
The problem is, of course, lightning Joe Biden.
Billy I checked this out and discovered u r about right – small margins on gas (~2% fully allocated) but large margins on stuff inside the station, like snacks, allowing the owners to make a living. i read they can get 50% margin on that stuff. I rarely go inside a station unles I am out on a trip and go in to buy somethng or use the head – usually 1-2 employees, max, in the station. So it makes sense to sell as much gas as you can w/1-2 employees, which means lotsa pumps and hope also to sell lotsa pop and chips. But adding pumps means more cash cost which u may not recoup w/those low margins. Tough biz.
What blithering idiots-unless someone has owned a business (including gas stations) do they realize the profit margins are so slim there isn’t room to “lower” prices unless you want them & their families to suffer, starve, go without or close their business.
These greedy jerks think the business owner who works his a&& off and gets paid last behind everyone & everything else (if there is a profit) should take a wage decrease. A&&holes.
My father owned gas stations and the only way he was profitable was by the sheer number of gallons he sold – fortunately he had one of the busiest stations in the state bcz he was on a major freeway. There is a breakeven point where your expenses are paid – then you can pay yourself.
We pinched pennies and there were many years of frugal living until the business could pay for itself and support a family.
My father bought a car wash and took out the gas bcz there was no $$ in it.
Clueless this incompetent administration is-that’s why a business=man is needed to run this country. Experience matters!
We began a very small family business that finally kinda took off, in that we were selling products, in summer 2020. We continued until around 3 months ago.
Shipping has doubled then tripled and taken our profits to nil. We continue now out of purified orneriness. People think we’re successful but we’re just too stubborn with a tiny glimmer of hope to give up.
I get it. I’m rather ornery myself.
People going bust is what this regime is all about.
Brandon, parroting his handlers, is robbing the gas station with the weapon of his fraudulent placement as Commander?-in-Chief.
