Gas isn't energy
It absolutely is. Do I need to explain why that's a ridiculous take, or have you had enough coffee by now to realize it?
Yeah, I was honestly wondering what an election conspiracy theory could possibly be coming from Kash Patel's FBI.
I mean... Gas prices are relatively low right now, at least here in 'Merica. I've seen them more than double what they are now, how did that happen?
It does? I honestly love it and it will be very hard for me to go back
Still nothing terribly new here. Energy has always had inelastic demand, meaning usage doesn't change much with price. Whether gas costs 1, 3, or 5 dollars people still need to get to work and will still buy stuff. Maybe people will start to combine trips or whatever with higher prices, but nothing huge.
Which wasn't a factor before? ๐
I'm not sure about that. The way I see it, there will be more supply for the below-expectation demand, which would make prices go down
The same way you pay more for gas in summer or when the economy is doing well: demand is higher so prices go up.
I mean, I'd rather he ignore us than gestures wildly at everything
Supposedly that's Bari's reason for spiking it. Still, the firsthand account from the people detained isn't very common, and it's uniquely telling that the government is citing criminal acts for which the guy pleaded out of and is legally innocent over.
Sounds like bribery to me. Which has a law and a cause for impeachment in the Constitution.
I never said it would happen immediately ๐
