Here in Australia we are paying nearly $8.50 a GALLON!!
The price of gas went up as soon as Biden was sworn in. Before Biden had his first cup of coffee as president he killed the pipeline and canceled all leases on federal lands.
I stop going out and eating fast food, restraunts, and I no longer buy anything that I don’t have to have to survive the gas prices are no longer a problem.
if you vote democrat don't be whining 😂😂
Everything is a scam a circus just look at how they rising prices in tax season it’s disgusting

Want to lower fuel prices?
Ask Putin
😊
This is why I buy my gas from people who steal it. It’s half priced and the same exact thing.
Biden and his administration want this to happen though so they can get everyone to buy an electric car. Like that's gonna happen when they are so expensive to buy to begin with. Even prices on gas powered cars are out of control
Democrats are killing America all by desing.
Gas prices triple to quadruple within a year.
Gas prices are rising and in California they seem to be over the top. Most people are aware that those who live in La La Land, well let's jet say they aren't wrapped too tight. The actor Tom Cruise pulled his suburban into a Santa Monica gas station to "fill up" after a few minutes he claimed he was robbed of all his money. He got on his smart phone and called the Santa Monica police department. When they arrived they asked Mr. Cruise what the problem was. Mr. Cruise said that he was robbed of all his money. The officer asked if Cruise could identify the robber. Mr Cruise said yeah, and pointed toward the gas pumps and said, "It was pump # 9… "LET'S GO BRANDON"
In new zealand we dropped tax of it by 28 cents per litre so in gallons it be about a dollar off
America voted biden stop cryin about it . They been going up the day he was in office.Start prod. Our own gas. Dont buy from iran brazil russia sudia arabia buy US.
Gas prices dont effect sports stars or rich celebs. Mostly the poor pepole
It’s price gouging
If you live in California, zero sympathy. You voted for this. Sometimes you get what you vote for.
Trumps been right all along .. too bad you brain dead Libs are just now seeing it ..
SORRY TO GIVE YOU THE FACTS, THE OIL COMPANIES WANT BIG DIVIDENS FOR THEIR INVESTORS, AND WILL NOT DRILL FOR MORE OIL, BECAUSE THEY SEE THE HANDWRITING ON THE WALL, ELECTRIC CARS ARE BEING MADE BY ALL CAR COMPANIES, NO CAR MADE AFTER 2035 WILL BE GAS POWERED,
I think high gasoline prices is just a cover up by this admin so they can bring more illegals inside the US to expand their voters’ base.
Another recommendation from the White House to lower your cost of gasoline:
Start with a full tank of gas. Once your needle drops to 3/4 full, fill it up again. That way you only pay little for another fill-up. Wash, rinse and repeat.
The truth is that the U.S. is the largest oil producer on the planet and could easily produce enough to drive down prices. U.S. oil producers were producing 18 million barrels a day prior to the pandemic. Today, they are producing approximately 8.5 million barrels a day. We have a huge amount of production capacity sitting there offline that could be brought back online in a couple of weeks time.
The head of the largest U.S. oil producing company admitted during an interview with Andrew Ross Sorkin on CNBC (aired in part on December 7, 2021 Squawk Box morning show) that U.S. producers have plenty of production capacity they are refusing to bring back online because they want to hurt the Biden Administration. When Sorkin asked the jerk if he had any obligation to his country or the world economy trying to recover from a 2-year pandemic, the response was, "our only obligation is to our shareholders."
Energy is the number one cause of inflation. If the U.S. oil producers brought back production to pre-pandemic levels, prices would drop to nearly $2.00 per gallon in just a few weeks. Prices throughout the economy would drop due to lower transportation costs. Inflation would drop back down to normal levels.
We are all being held hostage by a bunch of oil companies who are experiencing record profits while doing their best to make voters angry at Biden and the Democrats and hoping they will be voted out. No industry should have that much power over our economy or our political system. People should also understand that high oil and gas prices enrich Russia and OPEC at the expense from the rest of us.
The U.S. government should use its Emergency Powers to do some drilling and replenishing of the Strategic Oil Stockpile and constantly releasing from that stockpile into the market to drive down prices. That would force the oil companies to treat us fairly because they could no longer conspire together to act as a duopoly.
why dont they pay the thief gas money so they wont steal any more.
THANKS Joe Biden
I cannot afford over $2.40/G. Now my car sits in the parking lot 2 weeks at a time and I only drive to get groceries because no one is hiring for livable wages of $30/Hour and up to catch up with high cost of living and suicide inflation!
