[lxskllr]

March 8, 2022

This morning, President Joe Biden announced an executive order that will ban the import of Russian oil, liquified natural gas, and coal to the United States, as part of a plan to cut Russia off from the world economy. Biden did this under pressure from Congress, which was preparing its own bill...

The Feds don't have much to do with the price of gas?

Sheesh...

 

[SeanKroll]

Isn't it easy/ lazy to take a detailed article with references, and dismiss it, backing it up with Dems Bad...Biden Bad man for your evidence?

 

[BlackSmith]

Yes considering we were energy independent before 10% Joe was installed.

Explain to me, a wild Russian, what is trolling from your enlightened American point of view?

Google, you should try it sometime.

 

[treetx]

The irony of Nate, being a troll, accusing someone else of being a troll.

Carry on, @Maximalist.

@lumberjack - cute response but the truth is I have at least confirmed who I am by meeting several of our member online and in countries outside of my own.

I get it is hard for you to believe that Maximalist isn't actually a real person.

I find it funny y'all even trade banter with him. Not me.

Y'all enjoy your fuel crisis.

 

[SkwerI]

Pull that helmet strap a little tighter, Nate. Don't want to lose anything important.

[T]ransforming our economy to run on [electric vehicles], powered by clean energy, will mean that in the future, no one has to worry about gas prices.”

Ya no worries.
In a distant future, perhaps decades away. Electric planes, electric trains, electric bulldozers. Gonna be wonderful

Of all the things I make time to ponder, it’s never crossed my mind to wonder if Maximalist has a pulse.

Jumped .30 from this morning to this afternoon. Diesel is now 6.00 gallon. Larger jump.

Yeah...but at least there are no more mean Tweets!


Shit oh dear.

 

[Bermy]

On the way to the job diesel was $2.12, on the way home it was $2.24. per litre.

Shit oh dear.

Those mean Tweets played hell with the market didn’t they.

That was funny the first time, Jim.
Kind of funny the next 2 times.
But after 220 times the effect has kind of worn off a mite.

$4.359 gas/$5.099 Diesel today. I spent as much on gas as I did for the coffee on a 13 mile round trip.

 

[frans]

$8.60 on the Mendocino Coast. $6.10 here in my town. All of this is happened over just a few short days. I heard today that somebody was telling me that it’s the natural progression of inflation. But I think it’s just price gouging. I can’t see How fuel prices are so dependent on the conflict between Russia and Ukraine

 

[Cobleskill]

Speaking of price gouging-I was in Home Depot this morning. $48 for a 7/16 sheet of OSB. Crazy. Who should we blame?

 

[Dave Shepard]

1" pine boards on a 45 are code compliant in MA for sheathing. I menthol these to someone in 2020 and 4 or 5 houses popped up after that with pine sheathing.

Hahahaha!

What about the dreaded..................

How does that strike you?


Personally, I can't listen to people eat or hear a phone number more than three times.

 

[FireFighterZero]

Seems like last time I spoke with my father in law, gas prices were about 10 dollars a gallon there.

Wonder what it is now?

 

[FireFighterZero]

About 11 or so now.

I guess when you are already paying a whore-house price they don't raise it much on global news announcements.

 

[Dave Shepard]

Jim, do you get "free" health care and university there?

 

[FireFighterZero]

I probably could.

My father in law does.
