Gasoline Is Still Relatively Cheap - Why? [View all]

Here in central Pa. gas at $3.19 a gallon is pretty darn cheap, I have a question.

Is it because of Krasnov? I mean all of the fossil fuel subsidies, the removing subsidies from clean energy projects, giving the fossil fuel industry government land to drill on.

On November 15th Ukraine launched a massive drone strike on Novorossiysk Port Refinery, causing major damage. That port handles 2% of all oil exports world wide.

I remember when a Democrat was president and if anyone talked about a war in the Middle East gasoline prices would skyrocket. I call BS on supply and demand when a Magat is president.

Just imagine where our inflation would be if gasoline did skyrocket.

Ukraine has also been attacking numerous other Russian oil depots and refineries. Russia is rationing gasoline in Crimea.

Just a thought.
