So neither closing down pipelines, nor jacking up the cost for drilling, nor releasing Federal oil reserves, will have any effect on gas prices?

Where did you study economics? I'd like to review your study materials.

It might make sense if the price of gas had only increased in the US and only in a limited sense. But the current price has to do with OPEC not increasing production. I suspect that they weren't too happy with the price crash when the epidemic began and might be expecting another decrease in demand or just don't want to risk rushing to increase it just in case there is a dip again.

The president doesn't control gas prices. The only people deceived are those who think that he does.

I've been deceived?


I suppose that I should stop listening to this guy too:

People who think that the president controls gas prices can be safely dismissed as knowing nothing about how the economy works.
Their votes counts the same as that of an economy professor.

Presuming they and the professor are in the same state, otherwise their votes for president count quite differently.

Same as it ever was. (Re: strategic oil reserve)

[Edit: $3 gas isn't a "crisis". It's been that high before and will be so again after it falls in the near term.]

Indeed -- some of us remember 2008 when it was up to $4-$4.50 a gallon in a lot of places.

First off, by defacing someone elses property.

Some of us remember when these very same people used property damage as justification for getting shot by police...
Figured it was only a matter of time before they tried it themselves and liked it... 1/6 changed a lot of things.

How is pointing out the shortcomings of this administration childish?
Good heavens.

How loud does this need to be yelled to get to the back of the room;

Presidents do little to effect fuel prices!!!

most of those effect prices months and years later.
Perhaps you'd like to share which sources you've read as well.

BIDEN_STICKER_c0-16-1072-641_s885x516.jpg



Consumers angry with soaring gas prices are placing stickers on gas pumps with an image of President Biden saying “I did that!” as he points to the total price paid by the driver.

And stickers of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, California Democrat, saying “I helped,” are placed right next to Mr. Biden’s “I did that!” decals.

The stickers, available online in stacks of 100 to 300 and costing from $7 to $20, are reportedly springing up at gas pumps around the country and were seen by The Washington Times on pumps along I-95 and other interstates in several states between Washington, D.C., and Florida.

So now these people have moved on to vandalism. "Rules for thee but not for me". Now, if the price of gas were really so devastating they wouldn't be able to afford $20 stickers (much less all their other swag). Just more hollow belly-aching and fabricated outrage with the sole purpose of attacking Biden.

Hyperbole is a wonderfull thing, but there are still a few degrees between slapping a sticker on something and burning a store.

I agree, but I'm not sure why you're telling me this or using the word "hyperbole". There are quite a few degrees between breaking a shelf in a store or writing/spraying graffiti on the wall in a public bathroom and burning down a store also but they are still all vandalism. Again, I don't understand what your point is with your reply to me.
