no offense..
Gasoline is down .30 in two weeks.... And here is the sad truth.. Trump can't fix it. The USA is pumping more oil under Biden than Trump. The reason is "improved technology".

State level is dictated by various factors....

California has its own blend of gasoline, it has very high taxes, and it has a cap-and-trade program so... Blame that on the State, not Biden
Alaska, Arizona, Hawaii, Nevada, Oregon and Washington have similar problems..

Example Arizona
California's war on Big Oil could send already high Arizona gas prices through the roofOpinion: California Gov. Gavin Newsom is waging war on gas and oil, and his policies could force Arizona to pay part of the tab.

I've seen gas prices rise this month despite the idiot's futile attempt to lower gas prices by releasing another million barrels from our SOR:

U.S. Gas Prices Rise in Some States, Even After Biden’s 1 Million Barrel Release
MSN by Julia Mehalko May 28, 2024

 Some gas prices in the United States have risen during a busy Memorial Day weekend travel, even though President Joe Biden recently announced he would be releasing one million barrels of gasoline in an attempt to lower gas prices around the country.  As many Americans travel around the country this summer, analysts have warned that gas prices could continue to rise — though the Biden administration has tried to stop this.

 

MAY 23, 2024
U.S. gasoline prices ahead of Memorial Day weekend are 1% higher than last year
On May 20, 2024, the Monday before Memorial Day, the retail price of regular gasoline averaged $3.58 per gallon (gal) across the United States, 1% higher than at the same time last year.

I understand that several states have higher costs due to requiring special summer blends of gas, but that would not affect price increases that are compared to the same date last year.  That's where the comparison is usually made, and not on a day to day basis.

And I have no doubt that Trump CAN INDEED FIX IT!  Just watch!
By reopening federal lands and off shore to the drilling and fracking that Biden stopped, it will immediately bring back investment in new areas.  Add that to what reopening the work on the Keystone XL pipeline will do the same, as will the reauthorization of the oil refinery permit that Biden revoked right after taking office:

The Biden EPA Withdraws a Key Permit for an Oil Refinery on St. Croix, Citing ‘Environmental Justice’ Concerns
The permit had been granted during the final days of the Trump administration, which rushed the Virgin Islands oil facility through the regulatory process.By Kristoffer Tigue March 25, 2021

What we can count on without a shred of doubt is that if Biden were to win the election, ALL efforts to reduce the price of gas will immediately cease and he'll dump trillions more into the hoax of "green energy" and electric cars that few people want any part of.  The only thing that I see that would delay an immediate drop in gas prices when Trump wins is the fact that he may prefer to refill the SOR that Biden virtually wiped out in order to preserve our own national security.

I don't really care who you vote for, but if you think that electric cars, solar panels, and windmills are going to have even a miniscule effect on the climate, you're a fool.  And you're an even bigger fool if you foresee China and India giving up their fossil fuel energy dependance and going along with such nonsense!

It's nothing more than a hoax in this country to tax you more and take greater control of our lifestyle, and we will surrender our place as the world's strongest economic power if we continue to believe in the lie as you apparently already do.

Sorry if that offends you.

I am not offended at all. I disagree with you.

You are 100% WRONG on China     

The share of renewables in total electricity generation in China will increase from 30% today, to 55% by 2035, and 88% by 2050. By mid-century, solar and wind each will be generating about 38% of electricity.

Of course China is increasing their electricity generation capacity!
And they're doing it by building hundreds more coal burning plants than anything else, while appeasing others with little more than talk and a token production of solar farms, much to the chagrin of environmentalists who are fixated on ruining their own country's economy with windmills and EV's that will never replace fossil fuels.  China is smart enough not to bow to the whims of the global alarmists who have been wrong about EVERY CLIMATE DISASTER PREDICTION over the last 50+ years!

Despite what they tell you, China, India, and all of Africa and South America WILL NOT participate in any appreciable conversion to green energy while abandoning fossil fuels at any time in this century, no matter how much lip service they provide to that cause in useless world forums that liberals demand we participate in.

So all I can say is for you to enjoy the hoax!

Well, gullible people and ignorant people make me shake my head in wonderment, but angry over it?  Sorry to disappoint you!  I'm happy like most Republicans leading a great life in retirement, and as long as I don't have to succumb to the climate change hysteria that all liberals seem to be infected with, I can easily laugh at such foolishness while I drive my large, comfortable gas guzzler and stay cool in the summer and warm in the winter while you drive your plastic EV and wait on seemingly endless lines to charge the dumb thing!       

Haven't you EVER wondered about why it is that the climate change predictions over the last 50+ years HAVE ALL BEEN PROVEN WRONG?  Yet you're willing to see our government waste trillions of our tax dollars they want to throw at such a hoax!

I never said my business was going to ****.  Don't know how you came to that conclusion, but I'd love to see the post you seem to believe I made.  The fact is that I made a fortune in my last business by providing hundreds of thousands of energy-saving LEDs to commercial businesses in 4 states in my area, where huge incentives were paid to me by the states and the public utilities thanks to the stupidity of environmentalist programs, just like the kind you seem to love!  No one ever said that I had to believe in the hoax of climate change in order to take the millions of dollars they made available for your cause, and that made it doubly sweet!

And sure the world is changing.  It always has and always will.  But there are thousands of examples through history that show government programs failing miserably, and virtually every one has been put forth by liberals who all stupidly believe that any change necessarily means improvement.  And I can tell you right now, windmills, solar panels, and EVs ARE NOT going to make one iota of difference in changing the climate.  But if you're gullible enough to believe they will, by all means go get yourself that EV, paste some ugly solar panels all over your house, and plant a windmill in your backyard if you choose to.  But you're likely among the first irate Americans who bitch and moan over the inflation rate and the high cost of living that Biden has caused without understanding how they're connected to your phony cause.

Damn, talk about being at the right place at the right time and having the wherewithal to take advantage of a situation. Good on you!

Still waiting on a decision from Enel North America for that 140 acre solar farm. Will probably find out next year if they decide to pursue. We have a bit of an in as transmission lines already cross the property from the wind turbines and willing to sell them 20 acres for a work yard. Hard to believe we are in the second ten year term for royalties on the wind side.

Government is great at making a select few wealthy while everyone else gets the shaft.

Thanks!
Are you in the CT or MA area where Enel has the windmill farms?  I have to wonder if they've experienced the same problems in the northeast as those in the southwest have experienced when they iced up last winter and were rendered useless, kind of like the thousands of EV owners learned when they found out their batteries wouldn't charge properly when the temperatures dropped into the teens.  I'm sure millions of people in every northern state who considered buying one crossed it right off their list when they saw the reality of their inefficiencies and how unreliable they were.

I get a kick out of seeing the memes where an EV with a dead battery must rely on a gas-powered truck or van to bring them a gas-powered generator to charge their batteries!  Or the airplanes that were needed to dump thousands of gallons of de-icer on the frozen, seized up windmills!  Funniest of all is probably the thieves that have found the copper wiring in the charging stations was easy and very profitable to cut off the connecting hoses to steal the copper.
What a hoot!
