Prices still dropping toward $4, but that might not hold, given the new war belligerancies and the limits of the strategic reserve.

I drive a lot, and it’s about $80/month extra for me right now.
When I thought about that, I thought i could handle it.
What I need is for grocery prices to go back to where they were at any point prior to today’s prices.
Your point is not lost, and I don’t love any of this.
Grocery prices are not ever going to fall. The corporations know that we will pay that price now and will never concede that profit.

Yes, Iran is walking away from this significantly strengthened.
Nonsense. Our embargo is working.
Working to buy Trump time to figure out how to not further embarrass himself with Iran.
That's apparently not happening, he Taco'ed again today. Too bad the Pentagon fired all the higher ups who knew what they were doing.
From what I read about this MOU, Iran is getting everything it wants.
Think of what Iran could get if they wait a month. Right now it is just Trump’s promise of 300 billion in development. Trump’s promises are empty. Think the Iranians have a pretty good read on Trump and his lies. They are moving forward with what they want to do without the US.

Brent will shoot up': US energy executives warn of massive oil supply crunch
Energy executives say the world is weeks away from oil hitting $150 per barrel, with government and private industry reserves depleted
Executives from the largest US energy companies warned on Thursday that oil prices are likely to spike this summer, as the buffers the US and other western countries used to mitigate the impact of the closure of the Strait of Hormuz run dry.
“We're approaching unheard of inventory levels. I mean, really, really low levels. You can debate whether that's going to hit those really low levels in two weeks or three weeks. Once you get to that point, then you'll see [the] price shoot up,” Neil Chapman, a senior vice president at ExxonMobil, said on Thursday at a conference organised by the investment bank, Bernstein.
“I think dated Brent, most people, well, a model would say dated Brent will shoot up. Once you get to that really low inventory level, up to $150, $160,” he added.
Chevron chief executive Mike Wirth warned at the same event that the “buffers and the shock absorbers” that have kept oil prices in check “are being steadily drawn down”.

It’s coming!
“Over the next few weeks, we’re likely to see those pressures flow through more directly to physical prices, and there’s more upwards pressure that I would expect as we get into June and certainly into July,” he said.

Iran is not going to let Trump and republicans off the hook. The closure of the strait will go on till after the midterms unless Trump just gives the Iranian everything. I think that will eventually happen but who would trust Trump or the Israelis to live up to their end?
It's quite awful that Americans are in a state of constant civil war so foreign adversaries can ally with one party against another.
Remember when Reagan and the Republicans colluded with foreign terrorists to embarrass Carter domestically?
