Gas is always more in my area of the state. I can drive hour down to Fitchburg mass and pay usually.40-.50 cents less but here in monadnock region it’s expensive. That 3.449 was in Dublin NH. I don’t even have a gas station in my town but there is one 15mins either direction. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The other reasons are long term, Saudis are the short term, but none the less it's saying this administration is responsible for the higher fuel prices.

That’s fine but at the end of the day most agree that historically the President has little to no effect on fuel prices. BTW I understand those are long term factors but they are the reasons most give when blaming Unka Joe.👍🏼 Edited November 7, 2021 by Jimmy Snacks 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not going to bother me much, not rich but I don’t use that much gas. The middle class is definitely getting squeezed, and those who do use a lot of gas for work.

BTW I understand those are long term factors but they are the reasons most give when blaming Unka Joe.👍🏼 I think Trump had the biggest impact on fuel prices of most Presidents with the easing of regulations and pushing for energy independence. I also look at fossil fuels as a finite resource and other options need to be researched, I'm not a fan of wind farms, the amount of power produced struggles to overcome energy used for their production and maintenance (and they look like crap). I kind of lean toward solar but I don't feel the storage issue is sorted out yet. also I'm kind of the odd guy here I like electric cars, after driving one, I was really impressed but the range in winters makes them unfeasible up here.

That's the nice story Trumpers like to believe, but gas prices were higher every year prior to the pandemic than they were in 2015 and 2016. Blaming the cancelling of the Keystone pipeline for high prices is another favorite, and bragging that Trump stopped Russia's pipeline. Of course many don't realize that the shortage of NG in Europe is a major factor in the higher price of oil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snake Posted November 7, 2021 Share Posted November 7, 2021 Over 4 years time the price of gas under Trump peaked at $3.03.... to a low later of $1.88.. It was cheaper when he left office than when he entered. Oil production went up soon as he went in office, and came down when he left. But yeah....

spin_dry Posted November 7, 2021 Author Share Posted November 7, 2021 Trump mismanages the pandemic. The economy collapses along with the price of oil. He fails to offer support to domestic oil producers and several fall into bankruptcy. Thanks Trump!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And then when we post the reason, you still parrot the same rhetoric. Whether you like it or not, the President, his administration and EO's have the ability to effect prices and Joe Biden has caused the price of oil and gas to rise. Any politician who pushes the "green agenda" will raise the price of energy. Obama said it, and did it as well. And cheap energy is why this country has a great middle class. Anyone who denies this is just plain dishonest. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crnr2Crnr Posted November 8, 2021 Share Posted November 8, 2021 Oil went negative per barrel during the pandemic, due to storage and wall St. Had nothing to do with Trump. Russians and Saudis maintained low production output. Worldwide Fuel usage during the pandemic was extremely low due to lack of air travel and people being at home. When the travel started increasing oil started going up and production didn't change much due to supply and to recoup lost pandemic profits. Oil is a global commodity and pricing has minimal effect based on who's in the Whitehouse. I invested in oil when it was literally free and am up quite a bit on my investment. I believe Raisin Farmer or racer254 pointed out the percentage of tax the government collects in another thread here not long ago. It's rather high. Remember that the next time you go to fill up your Snowmobile, ORV or boat with premium that isn't driven on a public road. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes they do and I stated it very plainly, Trump forced SA to cut production, that caused prices to rise far more than a pipeline that still wouldn't be completed. You read this slow so you can understand it. The price of gas under Trump was never lower than 2015 or 2016 except after the pandemic shut everything down, so so much for your green agenda bullshit. Trump pressured the shut down of Russia's NG pipeline, Biden shut down the Keystone pipeline, you never once complained about Trump. shutting down Russia's pipeline Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
