If the Strait of Hormuz doesn't affect us why is gas $6?
In some countries their population will starve to death. You will have to pay a few extra bucks en route to your next happy meal
>>532185250what do you think "global economy" means?It's all interconnected; if the world suffers, the US, as the biggest consumer market, also suffers
>>532185250Your local state officials will never talk about the fat tax they slap on gas before it gets to your car, they could lower the price of gas 15-20% overnight by removing those but they would never.
The Strait does affect us, oil is an international market, the price of Brent oil affects WTI because WTI is seen as a fungible replacement for Brent, if Brent becomes too expensive more people buy WTI. So both of their prices go up together
>>532185250Because the orange lunatic is a liar, as all pollies are.
>>532185388>>532185365But then why does Trump keep acting like Hormuz doesn't affect Americans?
>>532185459Sneed sells feed and seed, which is completely normal. Chuck, on the other hand, sells fuck and suck.
>>532185250you won, you won, you won, you wonnow shush about you redditor coomer slut
>>532185459Because we could simply stop exporting and let the world beg
>>532185459Because admitting it does affect Americans would make him look extremely bad for starting a war which pointlessly exploded American cost of living, when Americans were already under severe cost of living pressure from inflation.He's decided the strategy is just to lie about it and presume his voters are too stupid to know otherwise, which he already does with most things.
Shortage increase prices you dumb fuck
>>532185532You cannot stop exporting without nationalizing the oil and gas industries which would lead to a historic standoff between government and private industry.
>>532185459Cuz he’s retarded/liar/blth, literally one look at the price of WTI proves he’s wrong He’s also retarded/lying when he says everyone should buy oil from us, that is already happening and that doesn’t actually help Americans, that just helps the oil companies, our oil prices going up due to demand will just make everything more expensive
>>532185250Biden
>>532185250You ain't seen nothing yet. Let's see it in 6 months if the war is still on going.
>>532185250Because that is california where prices like this are not unusual.
>>532185250because you live in a gay state like California. It's barely over $3 here in missouri
>>532185250It's a scam, like electricity and gas price rises due to the Ukraine war. They are just profiteering.
>>532185459because he is stupid
>>532185250>doesn't affect usbillionaires don't care, so he is right
>>532185532this is communism sweety like he >>532185565 said.
>>532185675take note of the date this photo was taken, shown at the top of image
>>532185532you would get no oil yourself then cause US uses foreign oils, US sells it crude but doesn't refine them
>>532185250>Meanwhile, I'm paying under 3 eurobux a gallon (0,75€/L)>Hon-hon-hons in E85
its biden that closed the strait of epsteinLET ME TELL YOU FOLKS THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION IS THE WORST THING THAT EVER HAPPENED IN THE HISTORY OF THIS COUNTRY! THIS COUNTRY WAS DEAD! AND NOW PEOPLE COME UP TO ME AND SAY SIR AMERICA IS THE HOTTEST PLACE ON EARTH! LISTEN I INHERITED BIDENS MESS
>>532185250because it's not, you would know this if you were actually american
>>532185459because shut the fuck up goy
>>532185250coz you are human resources for exploitation bybrhe rich, nigga!You produce more oil than RF.Compare the price of gasoline in RF and that in USA.And USA produces.more oil than RF.So where is the difference.It is in the philosophical essence of the politics.You are cows tk be milked , slaves to be exploited.You are human resources!You gonna pay more and more,.work more and more till death, you won't have any healthcare , you gonna be sent to fight in the wars of the Epstein's class.And nothing is ever conman change until your treat people asnhuma. resources for exploitation.Enjoy capitalism!
>>532186003Biden was the best president!
>>532185375>Your local state officials will never talk about the fat tax they slap on gas before it gets to your car, they could lower the price of gas 15-20% overnight by removing those but they would never.Yes, it's fucked all the way to the local level. However the mayor of my town didn't decide to be a retard and attack Iran and hand them the strait on a platter.
>>532185711>because you live in a gay state like California. It's barely over $3 here in missouriKek, reusing the same flyover no one gives a fuck state again
>>532185250It's because you are goyim cattle and your life has no value. You pay $50 a gallon if you have to and that's all there is to it.
>>532185250>The US has it's own source of oil. So much of it to where it is a major oil exporter to the rest of the world.>The US has it's own refineries.>The US recently conquered Venezuela which has oil.>Despite this, oil companies say the straight being closed as the reason for high gas prices but cannot explain why.They say it because people are stupid and won't question it. Also states that have green laws jack up the cost of gas to punish people who choose not to get an EV car.
>prices are rising>and now we're in a warBiden was a better president. At least he didn't start new wars.
>>532185250jews
>>532186385>Biden did not start any wars.>Instead Biden exacerbated Ukraine.
>>532185354Good goy
Spain doesn't import oil from Iran either, it comes from USA, Mexico, Brasil and Nigeria. Natural gas from Argelia and USA. So why are they raising the price if the oil and gas doesn't come from there? I recently hear something about that the price of oil is international so even it the oil doesn't come from Iran, the situation there affects the price globally.
>>532185459Because he doesn't care about americans or america. He's a jewish agent working for Israeli interests only
>>532185459Because America exports oil and a higher oil price makes America's oil more competitive. This is turning the US into an oil superpower. It's actually a strong move for the US.
>>532185459>>532185459Because your photo of 6 dollar gas in bumfuck nowhere doesn't inspire panic. Just like a leftist, all you care about is being rich. If you don't gaf about being rich, you just pay for your 6 dollar gas and shut the fuck up. Maybe say something funny to the gas attendant.
>>532186768It has no benefit for the American public, who end up paying higher prices for the same amount of fuel. It only benefits the profits of oil companies and the returns to their shareholders. If you are neither of these, you are being fucked with no upside.
>>532185459>keep acting like Hormuz doesn't affect Americans... by tweeting about it hysterically 10 times a day?
>>532186768migger subhumans deserve the rope
>>532185459Whites are stupid racist animals so you will believe his stupid lies and suffer
>>532186586>the price of oil is internationalThat's a polite way of putting "stock market jews buy and sell barrels millions of times before you see a drop of it ever used."
>>532186810The shit that's happening in Iran is stupid. But a lot of it is 'creative destruction' thst actually benefits us in a lot of oblique ways. Taking out Middle Eastern oil would be like ripping off the bandaid and cutting out the influencd of oil sheiks from global politics. This also puts Israel in a box against Iran, a 1v1 cage match to the death. Furthermore it dramatically weakens China who needs cheap oil to keep their industry going.So while I don't think any of this was intentional, the bull in the china shop managed to create a beneficial outcome for us.
why does the leader of the free world not like pic related? It's freedom in it's purest form. Oh wait he actually only cares about his own personal interests and he is also old and retarded. I charge my car right now for free using my own energy, kill yourself faggots.
>>532185354Based. Starving shitskin genocide and less poor people clogging up the roads. What’s not to love?
>>532186932>Taking out Middle Eastern oil would be like ripping off the bandaid and cutting out the influencd of oil sheiks from global politics.It's causing a massive spike in purchases of EVs and killing oil permanently.>Furthermore it dramatically weakens China who needs cheap oil to keep their industry going.China has a year of oil banked, over a billion barrels, exactly for this kind of situation. They're also the most rapidly electrifying country on the planet. They are unaffected by this.
>>532185250About 8% of US imports come through Hormuz according to Google.
>>532187027Most oil is not for civilian transport
>>532187020>Starving shitskin genocide and less poor people clogging up the roads. What’s not to love?
>spend months busting my ass doing overtime to be able to afford my first car>then this shit happensthanks, drumpf, i guess i'll just wait theres enough ev chargers so i can reliably use ev
>>532185250it's illegal to sell gas for less than (((global market rates)))
>>532186768That's retarded since we have the petrodollar.
>>532187009Do you have solar panels?, how much did they cost?
>>532185250It doesn't affect trump.
>>532185250>why is gas $6?Price gouging. Vote Lambright 2028, free gasoline, I'll nationalize the oil.
>>532187496you are probably trying to make look it bad because of the investment costs.I really can't tell you, they are well over 10 years old.Note that they also power the whole house in the summer monthsIt's really a no-brainer if you ask me, especially in Spain I guess.Also note that noone except for me controls the power that is generated.
Taxes
>>532185459>But then why does Trump keep acting like Hormuz doesn't affect Americans?
>>532187759Tons of Australians have the same setup. It means your house effectively runs off grid 8 months of the year out here. If you pair it with an EV, you never pay petrol costs again and run your car for free. Fossil fuel companies have had to work pretty hard on propaganda to make this sound like a bad thing.
>>532186268No Reddit. Your mayor did not. Use Gasbuddy, you disingenuous shit.
>>532185250It's $3.63 in my area, down from a peak of $3.99 a few weeks ago
>>532185365>>532185459It effects Americans but much less than everyone else. I'm paying about a dollar a gallon more, whereas in jeets are beating each other with sticks in the streets for a cup of gasoline. The US gets no oil from the Persian gulf and the oil we use can't be used by anyone else and we just annexed Venezuela which only produces the type of oil that only we use. The price spike in the US is due to market speculation and investor psychology, not the straight of Hormuz. A lot of stupid people bet the farm on $200/bbl futures but it is now clear that's not gonna happen so the market is gradually correcting itself. The global oil trade is also becoming regionally fractured, with America having achieved hemispheric energy independence, Asia (including China and India) utterly dependent on middle eastern oil, and Yuropooristan struggling to cobble together supplies from the US, Africa, and Middle East. Shartstralia is basically part of Asia for these purposes so they too are getting fucked
>>532187885maybe I have a wrong picture of Australia, I expected you guys to have sun 24/7 and everyday.It also is an insurance from power outages, of course only when the sun shows up but it's better than nothing.We never have outages though., last one was like 5 years ago.
>>532185459Because it doesn't.Either those gas prices are false, pure Iranian Propaganda.OR.You are severely affected by the speculation and trades of the 2 percent who get to decide who gets to buy American oil.
>>532188337It's a big country, as big as the US. Further north and it is sun constantly. If you're in the south like about 10 million people are, there's a legit winter for 4-5 months.
>>532185250Because you are Californian and your retarded state banned US oil
>>532187027>China has a year of oil banked, over a billion barrels, exactly for this kind of situation. They're also the most rapidly electrifying country on the planet. They are unaffected by this.Cope. Guess what China needs if they ever attempt taking Taiwan.
>>532185538"They know they're lying, we know they're lying, they know that we know they're lying" It's just performative, he's lying because it's the only move he knows to make. Being honest and admitting fault isn't in trumps bones
>>532185459He's a senile retard. Also, he just doesn't care if you suffer.
>>532185532>mutt doesn't understand US refineries are not set up for sweet crude and the USA has to import sour crude to make fuel Colour me surprised.
>>532185250Your oil companies are not state owned, so they can sell it to anyone else
>>532185250Because we need more wheels Anon.
>>532187759I was just interested to see how many years until your investment starts to give you benefits.
>>532188364>Because it doesn't.it quite literally does though retard.
>>532185250it isn't
>>532185459because it doesn't
>>532187020Refugees. And Israel isn't going to take any of them. You bet they'll be welcomed into Australia and Europe.
>>532185250because Jews will use any excuse to gouge the American ppl
>>532185250Because the market is global.If a buyer from India is gonna pay 10$ for a gallon of Gas, then the American Fuel Company is gonna export it there instead of selling that gallon to an American for 2$.So the American has to pay 6$ to get that same Gallon instead of the Indian customer.If global demand remains the same, but global supply retracts, then global prices rise.Supply and Demand, I thought amerinigger retards understood capitalism.
>>532185250Because while the US alongside the entire American continent including South America is self sufficient regarding oil on paper, this oil is not only expensive to drill but there is also demand from Europe South Korea, Japan and other “alies”.
>>532185250Your oil is being sold off on the global market to cover for shortage.
>>532187941How about we get rid of Zion buddy instead? Yeah, makes a lot more sense ruan your dimbass idea
>>532189219LIES!God Emporer Trump said it doesn't!You're not a traitor, are you?
>>532188275anon, that just means mutts will feel the shock delayed because you're a consumer market, which means the rest of the world sends you their shit if asians, jeets, europoors can't produce your treats, then that means exploding prices and shortages in everyday life, but also key industries
>>532185250>memeflagIt's $3.09 wholesale, the rest is taxes and markup. Blame your gay state.Gas is still under $4 at the pump here.
>>532190724>Gas is still under $4 at the pump here.whwew is that?so op 's pic is a lie?
>>532185459Because he’s a snake oil salesman and we stopped expecting honesty from our politicians a very long time ago
>>532190724>It's $3.09 wholesale,so are you against private merchants of gas?Are you against private entrepreneurship?Are you against private profit?Are you saying that all gas stations must be state owned and sell you the gas at the price for wholesale?Bro, you sound like a filthy commie.What is happening with the land of the free capitalists - USA?
>>532185538ok but we are living in the best economy ever tho
>>532185250all bidens fault, obama is also fault for this.
>>532185250Because y'all niggers dumb as shit.You think your local oil has any loyalty to you?You don't think they're selling your oil on the global market for profit?
