other than to reduce their own cut from a gallon of gas....what else can the government do to lower gas prices?

Reducing taxes for state and local level, sure.

For Trump? The guy who claimed energy prices would plummet by his being elected and life would be good again? Maybe not starting foreign conflicts that have the potential to completely disrupt the global oil markets?

Just a thought.

Now you're worried about gas prices LOL. STFU you phony -----.

When were gas prices not a topic of political concern?

And when did Trump say he would lower them immediately and why are they still claiming energy prices are down when they are up across the board? Gas/oil prices rising are the tail end of the energy price hikes people have been bombed with the last six months or so.

As usual, you're a f*&^ing idiot offering nothing.

Of course, fartpusher has nothing but gay sex thoughts.

Seek help, dumbf*&^.

You were in the camp that changed the definition of a vaccine when the ---- didn't work.

I had nothing to do with that as I did not and have never worked for a federal public health agency.

In any case, that you're such a stupid f*&^ that you rely on dictionary definitions without any further knowledge of a topic before trying to speak about it is precisely why nobody gives a s*&^ what "thought" ------ out of your empty little head.

You have no credibility

Right, because you and your trailer house dwelling "wisdumb" are so well regarded around here.

Which is probably why you're stupid enough to admit to buying into the ivermectin hype.

Because you're too stupid to know how stupid you really are.

I hate to say it, but there has to be a better way to do this.

Simply cutting everybody a $1,700 check will do the exact same thing the COVID stimulus did - immediate inflationary pressure as people stupidly spend it on s*&^ they don't need.

And if corporations are also being cut checks they should receive, well that's even more money printed and distributed to drive inflation and add more crippling debt.

You guys are right, lets just stick with the current plan of the rich paying nothing and everyone else covering everything. /s

If only anyone had actually said that. /s

My local station was $2.59 Tuesday night.

Last night I drove by and it's now $2.99.

I'm betting it'll be over $3.00 by end of Monday, if not sooner.

I'm starting to think we can assume the levels of corruption and graft going on quietly by people like Wiles must be massive to make it worth putting up with someone like Trump. I'm sure they're charging a hefty premium when they put their hand in our national treasury cookie jar so long as they spend their days stamping out the fires caused by the impulsive stupidity of a moron like Trump.

Or keep going as I see you continued to get your a*& handed to you after this comment.

It's basically just another pharmaceutical drug, and it's just a symptom of the way many pharmaceuticals are marketed. People who scoff at it as "horse paste" for political or personal reasons are just as bad as those hawking it for said reasons.

What are you talking about?

We're well aware it's a drug.

But it's not a drug for cancer treatment. Or COVID treatment.

It's an anti-parasitic that has been coopted by wellness loons as a cure-all because they can sell it. The grifting fraud group "America's Frontline Doctors" were found to have made tens of millions of dollars by charging people for telehealth calls where they then prescribed the "patient" ivermectin without ever even seeing them or examining them in person.

People calling it horse paste are doing so as a mockery of people who are so desperate to follow this crackpottery they have gone to farm supply stores and purchases veterinary formulations to take.

So no, they're not nearly as bad as the idiots buying into this nonsense.

Maybe fully understand the context before pontificating?
