They dox and attack people with red hats. Fire them, even kill them. But we're so nice and respectful that we still cross out someone's name instead of calling them out.
All she did to "back up" her claim was a pathetic attempt at an appeal to authority by saying "read a book or two". Ok, what books? I guarantee you she wouldn't have an answer and probably has never read a book in her entire life she wasn't made to read (and even then probably didn't)
Yes, I actually have communist extended family members who argue these points on Facebook. I’m no longer on Facebook, husband showed me their post defending gas prices.
As someone quite experienced and educated in economics, all I have to say is that 99.99% of people should defer all economic decisions to people who understand it because most people are retarded.
I did explain myself. Most people have no clue what they're talking about when it comes to economics.
The TC's picture for example actually isn't necessarily wrong but it is entirely incomplete. Higher gas prices could actually be indication of a recovering or growing economy but it doesn't have to be indication of that. The reasons why gas prices are on the rise could be a number of factors. In essence it comes down to basic supply/demand but without analyzing both of these in depth, it's impossible to conclude much about politics regarding gas prices. Trump supporters are just as guilty as making incomplete assessments as this person in the pic is.
Rarely does anyone actually seem to understand economics. It's not most people's fault. I don't pretend to know programming when I don't and that ought to be most people's stance on economics. The rich elite pay people who do understand economics to find ways to benefit them without the average person realizing that is what's going on.
solid points. basic economics is within my grasp but when you start introducing all the variables that come into play, i defer to the ones that have a fuller understanding. hey, in your opinion, taking into account what you know to be true, what is going to happen with gas prices? will they plateau, rise, lower? i anticipate many will be taking road trips this summer, based off of the small sampling of people i have talked to. there has to be a magic number that people will pay and feel like they got value and the gas people can feel like they are going to profit.
I honestly don't know because it's not my focus. One thing about gas prices is that they are independent of oil prices even if they are linked. You have to look at what's going on with the refineries themselves because a disruption to the supply there can increase gas prices even if oil prices are low for example. There's lots of things at play. Sudden changes to gas demand can cause short-term spikes before refineries adjust for it if the increase in supply was unexpected, etc... We haven't even touched transportation.
Generally speaking I would expect higher gas prices under Biden because of the fact that from a regulatory perspective he seems bent on implementing regulations which reduce oil supply so holding all else constant about supply/demand except Biden's regulatory policies, we should expect higher prices; however, he also likely wants to reduce gas demand which could actually lower gas prices but these are likely things that'll happen much more in the long-term. As for knowing what that means in relation to current prices now and especially in the short-term, that's something I don't know at all.
You're leaving out the effect of a deliberate policy to drive gas prices higher. This is ideologically driven, and therefore both easier and more difficult to factor into pricing models.
It is a market that is manipulated in many other ways, so even applying supply/demand models that ignore that is a bit of an exercise in futility.
hey, thanks for elaborating. i really want to pin the increasing prices on biden, but i didn’t want to do it prematurely or erroneously. i guess it is too early to attribute it to him now. we’ll see....
You don't know, but all of us are retarded? It really is amazing that you can't explain what you are saying in any concise way, all the while calling people retards. Good grief, the lack of self awareness is SAD!!!

It may be one thing to say definitively XYZ is the cause, but it doesn't take an expert to understand the greater implications of why gas prices are rising.
This is a direct result of a negative supply shock when Biden declared war on the pipeline and other forms of energy. Additionally, this is going to cause cost-push inflation. This in and of itself is not inflation but a market reaction. Inflation will come when producers produce less, raising prices or choose to pass along the inflated fuel prices. This is government intervention into a market leading to lost consumer surplus and deadweight loss.
It didn't come easy, or cheap, it took our enemies decades of sabotaging our public school and college systems and brainwashing our kids. But it worked! their efforts paid off
this reminds me of a very liberal co worker a few years back. he thought the economy does best with higher taxes. Because then the government can spend more.
Gas prices rising is an indicator of a recovering or growing economy
I think it merely indicates that the assholes in the Potato Administration fucked up our independence on oil by shutting the pipeline and stopped oil fracking and handed all the shit back to OPEC that is now fucking around increasing oil barrel prices thereby driving up the price of gas.
"Read a book" coming from someone who doesn't understand the economy needs people to have free income to spend so it can grow. Expensive gas means less free income that could be spent in the retail sector means less jobs, less turnover.
Rising gas prices, high, sustained unemployment means that the current administration's energy policies are going to pull under the rest of the economy barely keeping its head above water.
lefties don't understand economics. Rising demand which is in indicator of possible economic expasion, but hardly the only factor CAN cause a rise in price. Limited supply, or in this case, forcing us to pay our enemeies and literally ship gas over here instead of use a pipeline is the obvious direct cause. The same thing will happen anytime you remove the cheapest option of a good/service. If you kick out all the illegals staffing costs will go up in the short run bc you removed the cheapest option. We should stlil kick out all the illegals though.
Well if everyone had that defeatist attitude then we certainly will achieve nothing.
You are willing to throw in the towel after reading a tweet from a nobody?
This is why I'm having the best months (financially) of my life. What hurts leftists without realizing, I am there to sell them the consequences of their actions. I'm making $15,000 a week (minimum) because they can't afford to use their SUV's they bought during the Trump administrations when gas prices were affordable.
You guys are losing objectivity on this one. Trump increased the oil supply during his term and democrats shut down demand with lockdowns. Biden reduced supply with keystone shutdown and demand is naturally going up as things reopen. I have several oil stocks and can verify that they have recovered since Trump left office. Im not saying Biden "fixed" them. Fossil fuel is in a dangerous spot for other democrat reasons. In the SHORT TERM Biden's actions have caused economic improvement for the oil sector. The initial post is correct, albeit with alot of missing nuance.
LOL.
2022: Gas prices just hit $52,312.82 per gallon. I save enough to get my 25cc moped to the watering hole, but the station was out. We're all going to be rich soon!
Why cover the name?
Stupid needs to be exposed.
People really are this dumb, the account easily could be just as real as you claim fake.
Old T_D members cover names because we had to on plebbit, and old habits etc.
It's not, or at least it looks like it was deleted, but you're right. We need to be more discerning and post sources:

too tru
I agree.
They dox and attack people with red hats. Fire them, even kill them. But we're so nice and respectful that we still cross out someone's name instead of calling them out.
Need to fight fire with fire

They deleted that post.
True. That dumb cunt didn't present anything to back up her claim. One could easily swap the words around and claim opposite.
All she did to "back up" her claim was a pathetic attempt at an appeal to authority by saying "read a book or two". Ok, what books? I guarantee you she wouldn't have an answer and probably has never read a book in her entire life she wasn't made to read (and even then probably didn't)
it's against the rules of this sub to doxx
It's a public twitter post. Not doxing.
Yeah that person is probably a dog anyway.
Gold medal in the mental olympics challenge.
Yes, I actually have communist extended family members who argue these points on Facebook. I’m no longer on Facebook, husband showed me their post defending gas prices.
I saw few of such claims, they screech "supply and demand! demand has gone up!"
Yes fuckers, you're right
Supply and demand
But it's the supply problem, bitches
It’s a cope. I bet many of them know but just don’t want to admit that they’re wrong.
There’s a reason pride is a sin
Yes, but so what? Pride is definitely addressed in the Bible as a sin.
Because it hurts people.
When supply is good, prices are cheap. Like with labor
The supply of US dollars has gone up, drastically. That's what the core problem.
The keystone pipeline was shut down and they're restarting war in the middle east. FIFY.
As someone quite experienced and educated in economics, all I have to say is that 99.99% of people should defer all economic decisions to people who understand it because most people are retarded.
Hell, at least I know I'm retarded....eating crayons, and saving money are my two favorite things.
Well, you're half-way to WallStreetBets.
Most people don't even understand how interest works. It's not rocket science but I think you have way to much faith in the general population.
"simple". Sure some aspects are pretty simple, and the fed tries to make it harder than it is, but not all of economics is just simple math.
Yeah because the "experts" have done so fucking well so far, huh?
They have but the experts don't work for you.
Uh huh.
There is nothing to understand beyond, pay your bills and don’t borrow more than you can pay back.
So called experts like you have put us in a position to have more debt than we can pay in our lifetimes.
Are you being sarcastic? The experts in power know EXACTLY what they're doing but they aren't working for you.
Well since you just called most of us retarded, you’re the one that needs to explain themselves.

read: The Creature From Jekyll Island. There is an audio book out there for free.
And get The Tuttle Twins books for the whole family.
Most people don’t get how shit works and that’s how I get my liquor money Bubs!
The stupid hurts. I predict this was posted by a future Darwin Awards contestant.
Fucking commies are economically retarded.
High College Tuition costs is a sign of a healthy economy.
Yea paying back her student loan of $300,000 for dumb Wokenomics Masters Degree is also a sign of a healthy recovering economy!
Take your kids out of public school now!
Breathtaking.
America can be saved. Twitter cannot.
Just let them die when the plague hits this year. Get ready to lock down or go off grid preferably
No matter who wins the civil war there will be a lot of purges
Reminds me of people saying "oh you are getting deathly sick from the vaccine? that means its working!!"
Trump is still POTUS.
It didn't come easy, or cheap, it took our enemies decades of sabotaging our public school and college systems and brainwashing our kids. But it worked! their efforts paid off
I wanted to correct your "collage" systems, but I think it works fine the way it is, lol
this reminds me of a very liberal co worker a few years back. he thought the economy does best with higher taxes. Because then the government can spend more.
Ya, the last time gas got stupid high home foreclosures started up... This lady clearly has the IQ of a golden retriever.
I just can’t even with this level of stupidity.
Just wait till the real estate bubble bursts soon 🤣💦 ... yea then I guess it will be super duper recovery growth indicator huh leftards??
I think it merely indicates that the assholes in the Potato Administration fucked up our independence on oil by shutting the pipeline and stopped oil fracking and handed all the shit back to OPEC that is now fucking around increasing oil barrel prices thereby driving up the price of gas.
By all means, correct me if I'm wrong.
Thanks. I wanted to develop a brain tumor today
A 2x4 with 30 bent nails in it has a higher IQ than this dumb bitch.
And could be more useful, too.
By their logic:
$2/gal bad... $2.50/gal better...
So... where does that end? Is $50/gal even better?
$1,000/gal best? $1,000,000/gal best?
I have no words for how profoundly lacking some people are. And... they vote... and... they drive...

These people don't understand how certain people are making billions while he and everyone suffers.
Now that is truly dumb, painfully dumb actually
Damn this is stupid. How are you going to get more production, which requires energy, when energy is more expensive? You can’t afford it.
This is all because they believe everything they read from “experts” rather than rely on the common sense that God gave them.
I'm just shocked that this tweet didn't come from AOC.

.....what?
🤦♂️
and yet we must save it.

We’d love you over here in the UK. The government put plenty of laws and options that help hard working people and business owners.
I’m sure post-brexit people in hands-on (engineering, steel work, a trade etc) or agrigultural work would be rewarded greatly.
Hahaha!
I don't know of any economist that would agree with this.
Ho Lee Fuk! We are doomed!
Holy fuck, people are dumber than I thought.
Just parroting what the domestic propaganda outlets tell them.
This is why I'm having the best months (financially) of my life. What hurts leftists without realizing, I am there to sell them the consequences of their actions.

Wow, this lady is a special kind of stupid.
That fucking Lauren, man. Always talking shit about gas prices...
