FortWayneAsNancyPelosiHaircut says6.10 already in our area. Fucking $6.10 It is insane.
Where are you located? I assume California?
Truth be told, this is a tax on the poor and working class. It doesn’t impact the well off folks IMO. I hope the poor and working class folks, who voted for Biden, are happy with their votes.

The immediate impact is on the poor and working class. The more affluent will feel it slowly over time with increased taxes and other government-induced problems.
I hear some states are cancelling their state taxes on fuel. I don't see how this will help much, as it won't increase supply or decrease demand.
Here in California, there's a proposal to give $400 to every registered vehicle owner. I suppose this includes EVs? The good news is that it isn't means tested, so I'll finally be getting some tiny bit of my tax money back from the state!
Hircus is correct, rising crude oil prices will slow down the economy so raising interest rates is now unnecessary.
EV owners don’t pay fuel road taxes at the pump, and as such, those vehicles that are full BEV should be excluded from any kind of fuel tax offsetting payout.
This may have been the point of provoking Russia into invading Ukraine
Putin needed no provocation.
On Feb 14 Germany clearly said that NATO membership for Ukraine was not under consideration.
Shaman saysThis may have been the point of provoking Russia into invading Ukraine
Poor, stupid Russia: got herself provoked into a quagmire for no good reason. Low IQ country indeed.

The USA had far less reason to be “provoked” into a second war/quagmire with Iraq. Or even Afghanistan.
FortWayneAsNancyPelosiHaircut saysMaybe instead of sending Ukraine billions they should send us gas vouchers, it's our fucking money!
If you want gas vouchers - move to California: Newscum will be sending $400 per vehicle.

I know CA, they'll tax me $1000, then they'll give me $50 back to feel good about myself. Because they are faggots!
richwicks saysB.A.C.A.H. saysThe reality of the energy density of the liquid fuels, what we get for what we pay, $6 or even $20 is an incredible bargain, compared to feeding-watering-taking care of horses.
My father, who was born in 1938 told me a story about his uncle he heard when he was a kid - his first ride in a car.
His uncle was driven from Harrisville NY to Star Lake. He got there in an hour. He never gone so fast in his life!
They are 20 miles apart.
I wonder how many talked to the Silent generation when you were kids. My grandmother and her siblings told me that "life was so much easier". They got vacuum cleaners, washing machines, and dish washers introduced to them in their lifetime. They used to beat rugs to clean them, scrub clothes on a wash board, and of course all dishes were wash...
I still wash dishes with my hands. Dishwasher leaves a thin film of dishwasher soap on the dishes. Cook about 90 percent of my food
On Feb 14 Germany clearly said that NATO membership for Ukraine was not under consideration.
The US promised NATO would not expand “one inch” to the East and since all NATO decisions have to be taken unanimously, the US could easily have blocked the expansion.
The German Reunification Treaty clearly states no NATO forces may be stationed in Former East German Territory. This was signed by both Germanies, Britain, France, the Soviet Union, and the US.
So it is pretty clear that, while there was no binding promise from NATO as an independent entity, Britain, France, Germany, and the US could each have vetoed expansion if they so desired.
This is a good example of NOT acting in good faith.
Putin also agreed to respect Ukraine sovereignty if Ukraine gave them nuclear missiles, which they did.
Blaming the USA, NATO, Ukraine for Putin’s aggression is blaming the victim.
clambo saysPutin also agreed to respect Ukraine sovereignty if Ukraine gave them nuclear missiles, which they did.
The US didn't respect Ukrainian sovereignty, which the United States also promised to do.

How so? Remind me when did the US invade Ukraine. How many cities leveled, people killed?
PS. Besides, weren't you supposed to learn back in preschool that somebody else's alleged wrongdoings does not give you free pass for the same (or worse)? Or, more recently, didn't you find out that "But, Officer, everybody was speeding!" does not gets you out of ticket?
How so? Remind me when did the US invade Ukraine. How many cities leveled, people killed?
I don't know how many people that were killed by the pre-puppet government during the Maidan coup but I know for certain that the West doesn't believe that Viktor Yanukovych did it.
Who's "the West"? Some loony movie director with a man crush on Putin?
Are you saying it was the US who made him refuse to sign the agreement, beat the original protesters and refuse to fire that minister?
So, back to that invasion by the US. When did it happen?

And news of course ignores it, it's just ok. they are too fucking busy worrying about some country fuck knows where in Europe near Russia. I'm fucking pissed. What affects me, gas prices. Hate the gas prices, hate the media. This country is ran by assholes.

Just ranting, really upset over this shit. It's lowering our budgets significantly because I'm not rich.
