He doesn’t seem to realize that the prices in gas buddy’s charts aren’t adjusted for inflation. Taking that into consideration, the retail peak price in May, 2018 of $2.97, when adjusted for inflation is actually $3.13. So we last saw > $3 gas during Trump’s presidency.

Platinum Contributing Member Highmark Posted April 22, 2021 Platinum Contributing Member Share Posted April 22, 2021 They will likely fudge the numbers but if things continue as is inflation is going to be very significant this year.

teamgreen02 Posted April 22, 2021 Share Posted April 22, 2021 Prices have basically come back to their 3-5 year norms. This isn't unexpected given the current level of economic activity post covid lockdown. The oil and gas industry is starting to pick up again which is good for the US economy. Obiden has made some bone head comments and decisions but $3 gas isn't completely his doing. It's basically the normal supply/demand driving up pump prices. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed but rhetoric and action from DC can also impact prices up or down. I'm not claiming canceling the pipeline deal has had significant impact but it plays a role. No different than equities part of commodities prices are on the prediction of where things will be not just the state of things now.

Pressuring SA to cut production on oil they were selling the US at a discount had far more effect than shitty tar sands oil that wasn't even being transported through the pipeline that was cancelled.

Agreed but markets are future looking and if x millions of oil per month were going to be that much more expensive to ship investors take notice sooner rather than later.

Where is there a complaint in my post? here’s the stupid part of your statement why would I wanna spend three dollars a gallon of gas opposed to two dollars a gallon of gas my boat holds 70 gallons of gas that’s a difference of 70 bucks per fill up. I’d rather spend that $70 at a restaurant out on the water somewhere then giving it to a gas station. You’re correct we have the money so I’m gonna spend it anyways but Americans are spending billions of dollars more now per year on fuel for no good reason simply because Joe Biden wants to pander to climate change retards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, but tar sands oil isn't on the same level as high quality crude from SA and that shitty oil wasn't going to be in the new pipeline too soon even if construction wasn't halted. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No different than equities part of commodities prices are on the prediction of where things will be not just the state of things now. Sure, DC rhetoric can impact the price, but it isn't a large contributing factor to the price increases we have seen recently. Before covid there were almost 700 oil rigs operating in the US. We aren't even back to half that number. As prices come up to profitable levels more and more rigs will come back online. We aren't even half way back to pre covid levels. There is a lot of available supply yet to keep prices in the $60-70/bbl range. Democrats can play with their solar panels and wind mills. Just don't do too much damage to the oil and gas industry in the process. O&G still fuels our modern economy. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
