$7/gallon gas is coming

I just checked Gasbuddy and this is FAKE NEWS. You can easily find gas for half that price around Menlo Park.

How dishonest of New York Post to go out of their way to find one anomalously high price and claim that's somehow the norm.

They may think twice before rolling coal.

Cause for celebration- I would like to see $10/gas. I walk and bike nearly everywhere.

Have you ever been to the midwest, pp? Have you ever visited rural America?
Do you understand that it is not possible for everyone to bike and walk everywhere?
Do you understand that the farmers that grow your food and raise your crops need fuel for their farm equipment?

You are just clueless.

So we just give farmers gas subsidies, and make the vast majority of people, who are in urban areas, use mass transit or buy a Chevy Volt($33k)

What a simplistic clueless response.
Your "solution" does nothing for the millions of rural residents who need to drive 10+ miles to the grocery store or 30+ miles to a doctor's office or hospital.
I believe some of you urban dwellers have never stepped outside a city.

Good thing the vast majority of electric cars on the market easily get 200+ miles on a single charge. That should really help the Real Americans get to their doctor or the nearest grocery store. And even rural families have electricity!

Where exactly does that electricity come from to charge all the EV that everyone will eventually own?
Windmills? Solar farms?

Crickets, of course.

The 2024 US power grid generation is as follows:

solar and wind 26%
coal 17%
natural gas 37%
nuclear 19%

90% of EV are charge overnight or other non peak times. Bottom line there is plenty of capacity for future EVs needs. It seems you do not understand how EVs work.

What pipeline are you referring to, and how does it related to auto fuel?

I love the cute Dem responses - you’re going to get wiped in the midterms and it’s well deserved.

Not well deserved. A sign of an idiot electorate and nothing else. GOP policies will make everything worse. GOP bows and scrapes to the big oil price gougers.

I am so tired of you blithering morons pretending you know anything or care anything at all about ordinary people.

Renewables is not just solar and wind but mostly hydro.

Correction- in the US in 2023 hydro was about a quarter of renewables which was 21.4%. Solar + wind a 13%

US oil production is at record highs and have been for two years.

The US is a net energy exporter, something that never happened under Trump.

And, contrary to the fears of the OP of this very old thread, gas never got close to $7 per gallon and is around $3 or less now in most places.

We broke the OPEC cartel. They are ending their cuts in December and going for market share. Saudi Arabia abandoned their $100 price target, opec market share has plummeted. Expect more decline in oil prices soon….barring an Israel/Iran flair up!
