$100 will soon be the floor. Even if oil started flowing today it'll take months for prices to go down.
Prices of everything from gas at the pump to airfares to anything made overseas are already rising.

"Energy costs, all of it, air conditioning, heating, all of it, including gasoline, will drop by more than 50% within the first 12 months," pedo 47 said at a campaign stop in Pennsylvania in August 2024.

I stated this on another thread(s), I will state it again.
Iran is winning.
the attacks on the oil "pipeline" has been devastating. Iraq has shut down it's port. Traffic through Hormuz has dried up.
The gulf states have limited storage capacity.
Once that capacity is reached, the pumps are shut off
The pumps cannot simply be turned back on, it takes weeks if not months to restart an oil well.
We are on the edge of the abyss
Thanks magat scum

I have to say that $100 a barrel oil has suppressed MAGA input into the forum more effectively than anything I have ever seen.
When it reaches $200 maybe they will go away completely.

Remember when Republicans used to pretend they cared about the price of gas and out of control government spending?

In the first 5 months of this fiscal year the U.S. took in $2.5T and spent $3.5T
Not a peep from congressional Republicans about debt and deficits.

The Trump administration has been spending $50 billion taxpayer dollars a week for the past 5 months.

Just remember.
We don't have enough money for national healthcare, education, senior care, or mental health institutions.
Because racists would rather hurt everyone than find out a Black person or minority benefited for our taxes.
This country was founded on genocide and built by slaves so wealthy white folks could become insanely wealthy and powerful.

Wow.
That was probably one of the most neatly-wrapped succinct explanations of Amerikka that I have read in a long time.
Thanks, Clownshack.

Meanwhile, the DOW, S&P500 (most bond markets), and NASDAQ sink back to the levels of 4+ months ago hitting everyone's IRA investments and with no relief in sight. Our oil stocks are helping to lessen the blow, but as a senior retiree, it's getting scary.
Thanks Trump and Hegseth for _ing up my retirement funds, making us less safe, and driving up the cost of living, not to mention making US a world embarrassment. God help us.

Again. This war is going horribly for America and Israel with no end in site.
We are looking at world wide depression level blows to the economy and possible use of nukes
Israel is getting clobbered
How long before they say nuke Iran?

Everyone is pretending to be all up in arms over something being done about Iran.
Iran and North Korea have been at the top of the list of concerns of national security for the US consistently for the past 40+ years.
What do people bring to this place as a consequence?
Their gas went up $1.
LOL
like I said.......this place is chock full of ------- who are incapable of managing their lives. They need a federal government who feeds, shelters, educates, and gives nice little pats on the head with a gold star every day.

If that's how you feel and it's still how you feel about this country then this shouldn't be a country you live in.
IOW, get your lazy mooching ass out of here.

The truth hurts your feelings that much?
You poor, poor thing.
Makes sense, you strike me as the type of person who's embarrassed about what his European ancestors did and wants nothing more than to erase and whitewash the past to help yourself feel better about being a worthless mooch.

Do you think you could have survived Texas in 1840?
A variation: Do you think that you could have anything approaching the life you have in Texas, 1840?
The real question is who needs civilzation?
Everyone. Including the Texans of 1840.

are you aware of what was going on in 1840?
at your core......you're nothing but a race baiting wretch.
All arguments lead back there.
"Oil prices rise to $100."

You're acting as if civilization still hasn't arrived in Texas.
You're still waiting on it.
The rest of Texas is moving on and ignoring your whining.

Eberly, if you raped your slave girl, and had six kids with her, would you consider those kids free whites or enslaved blacks?
Asking for Thomas Jefferson, whom you consider a hero.

The question was: could EBERLY have survived and prospered in Texas, 1840?
Or would he have died young and badly, as most persons did?
You take the supports of civilization for granted, EBERLY.
And then mock those who don't.

You could support Native American culture and address its treatment, you could educate yourself on local Indigenous history, support Native-led organizations, advocate for the removal of harmful stereotypes/mascots, and amplify Indigenous voices. Key actions include donating to indigenous charities, buying from Native-founded businesses, and respecting land sovereignty.
You could do a lot of things.
Educate Yourself & Others Support Native-Led Organizations Advocate Against Appropriation Engage in Political Action Support Cultural Preservation Listen and Follow Indigenous Leadership
Or you could do nothing. And come here and criticize and mock others for caring.
Which is what I predict you will continue to do.
