No, I'm comparing "doing your own legwork" to "doing your own legwork".

Shlt, you quote Trumps patently false "We were energy independent" line, then whine that I don't make my own graphs of stats that date back decades.
********** dunce.

Trump isn't the only person to make that statement. Why do you focus on him? Agenda? Bias? Gay? Diick eater.

Fair enough. So, who made the claim that you are parroting?

And, when are you going to prove that we were "energy independent"?
When are you going to share what the correct price of gas is?

Seriously? Obviously not your left wing liberal Democrats. So, the rest of the United States.

Listen, did I say there is a "correct price of gas"? No, I said that what is going on right now is not reasonable. I said we should have one fuel (diesel) and one price for it. <---- my opinion, no facts needed.

Let me turn the questions back to you for a second, if you are willing to answer with YOUR OWN THOUGHTS on the questions.

Who does it benefit to have gas prices above $4.00 a gallon for the lowest octane of gas?

Who does it benefit to have diesel above $5.00 a gallon?

How do these higher prices help or benefit the citizens of these United States?

For end users, the optimal price of gas is as low as it can be (provided producers and workers are fairly compensated).

The second question is silly, because we all earn different salaries, drive different vehicles, have different priorities, et cetera.

I think $2.50 is a reasonable and acceptable price for gas.

I love all these videos showing these idiots talking about how we may be paying more for gas but at least we are sticking it to Putin. Talking about how they don't mind paying more at the pump if it means they have a "clear conscience" about Putin and Russia... Oh, I'm sorry, did you have some problem with them before????? That idiot Stephen Colbert saying he'd pay $15 a gallon but he drives a Tesla... Then stfu about gas prices moron. Yeah, a millionaire talking about a moral victory over Russia as he doesn't buy gas for his $150,000 electric car.

I am starting to think that these people who seriously think this is "#winning" may in fact be communist.

Nice try. But I'm not buying it. You didn't get your "factoid" from "the rest of the United States", especially when the claim has been debunked left and right, up and down.

You said gas prices are not reasonable. If you know what "not reasonable" is, then you must have something you consider reasonable. I even asked for a range of prices and you could provide that for all grades or just one.

Let me turn the questions back to you for a second, if you are willing to answer with YOUR OWN THOUGHTS on the questions.

Who does it benefit to have gas prices above $4.00 a gallon for the lowest octane of gas?
It can benefit a LOT of people. From the producers. to the retailers (less so), to the general public that invests in the stock market and that trades in the commodities markets. If it is trailing an upward movement of the overall economy, then it is not so much a benefit but an indicator of good things that are causing it to happen. Look at gas price history. Any time it drops precipitously, it's due to a major bad event happening. Recession, terrorist attacks, pandemic are the most recent ones we have seen. NOT something to root for.
But also notice that every time our country starts to recover from something bad (like recession, depression, etc.) and the economy surges, so do gas prices.
So pick your poison: surging economy and rising gas prices, or tanking economy and cheap gas?
If the economic surge outpaces the increase in COL, then i'll take that over a recession or depression any day.

Who does it benefit to have diesel above $5.00 a gallon?
See above.
How do these higher prices help or benefit the citizens of these United States?
See above.

I think anyone who congratulates Putin for doing a good job is a Communist.

And you say I avoid questions.

You're "not buying it"? Wow. Why, because you don't want to know that people other than Democrats have done good?

So you think the current gas prices are due to an economic surge for the better?
