Oil has dropped 30% the last week, under $100 now. Gas hasn't moved down at all. Once again proving that the energy market is completely detached from all economic rules. The companies just do whatever the **** they want to gouge consumers because the legislatures are bought and paid for. Oil futures move up a bit and gas prices skyrocket instantly. futures fall back down and gas prices still go up, maybe go down a month later.
I've still got too much work to do trying to pull you bozos out of the Cult 45 to retire!!
Right there with you. I use to build ramps and the younger kids would lay down and I pretended they were buses and would jump them. I was about 11.When I was a kid back in the 70s we all imitated Evel Knievel and set up ramps and jumped our bikes over stuff. Needless to say there were accidents and injuries.
Nice Father’s Day greeting . . . from the exclusion criteria you listed (sleeping with prostitutes), that would include paying $130,000 to fu@% a pornstar too, right?Happy Fathers Day, fellas especially to all of those who didn’t shower with a teenage daughter or raise a crack head son that sleeps with prostitutes and uses their dad to steal taxpayer money.

Ukalum. Not trying to be a jerk at all ... and i have said multiple times i could do without trumps stupid twitter fights w stupid people while he was pres.If that is a "tough" decision for you, then you have NO business voting.
Did the dumb witch call him out on russia collusion evidence too?
* KA - BOOM *show me where biden shut down us energy production? you cant because it didn;t happen. The only drop was in 2020 because of the fatass cheeto. Oil prices cratered and covid hit so production cratered. oil and gas production are up last year and this year and not stopping. Biden froze new leases, stuff that takes years to develop into flowing oil. The oil companies have enough tapped wells and ongoing projects for decades of production.
We were never energy independent under Trump. That is the dumbest talking point of the Trump Presidency. Independent means self sufficient which we never were. in 2019 we were still importing 5million barrels a day. US oil production has never gone above 14mill barrels a day. Consumption hasn't been below 18million barrels a day since the 2000's. I know math is hard for uneducated Trumpsters. keystoneXL was for Canadian oil and we are still receiving all of it through other pipelines. Their wasn't a single day of Trumps presidency that we weren't importing crude/LNG/coal and finished product from ME, Russia, South America, Canada. Natural Gas was what drove the US energy boom and that Boom was from Obama.
This image shows very clearly which president did all the work of equaling out our crude imports/exports. But that doesn't make us energy independent. It just means we are exporting out a lot of finished petro product. Obamas 2015 energy bill lifted the ban on exporting domestic crude which allowed the final push to 2019's net export. 2021 was pretty much equal export/import. 2022 is projected for a tiny net import because of covid screwing with the markets. 2023 and beyond is projected back to net export.
Of course all of this is offset by the fact that the President has very minimal control of oil. The companies will only produce and export what makes them the most profit. oil market is through the roof right now so production is going to also go through the roof to cash in. As soon as prices crash production will crash with it. That's the free market.
The only thing that would actually make the US energy independent would to be to go All In on renewables and nuclear. Which seems to be the long term goal of most smart states. Of course nuclear takes forever because every one wants the energy but America also loves NIMBY.

EIA expects US petroleum trade to shift toward net imports during 2022

Never happened because you have never earned $130,000.00. 1 week flipping burgers once did not pay you that much not that you actually worked. That is why you only lasted a week before being fired.

With no real plan in place except the "wish" to be all clean energy these people will destroy our economy and country. How do they plan on having people get to their jobs when most cannot afford an electric car or the high gas prices they are pushing us to. Incredibly short sighted or just plain corrupt and planned. People will die in the coming years because of this radical unthought out plan.* KA - BOOM *
Shut down? No. Greatly impeded with a radical agenda? Yes.
And, said the CEO of a large, publicly traded energy company, who asked to remain anonymous, “Biden’s attacks on the industry have created an uncertain environment that prevents investment.”
In March, Biden administration revoked a permit by a refinery on the U.S. Virgin Islands to expand production. Last month, the Biden administration canceled a massive, one-million acre oil and gas lease in Alaska. And earlier this week, Senator Ron Wyden proposed a large new tax on oil industry profits, which Biden officials say the president may support.
A senior executive at a major U.S. bank that finances oil and gas exploration yesterday stated, “If you were an oil company, why would you invest hundreds of millions of dollars into expanding refining capacity if you thought the federal government or investors would shut you down in the next few years? The narrative coming from the administration is absolutely insane. ”
Damn idiots!
You just pissed off bushrod, sammysdaddy, sambowieshin, Jameslie, Plat, and a host of other libs here who are now cowering in their basements.
So last Friday , we had this big company wide meeting in our big conference room. The whole office 60+ people in the room plus another dozen or so in zoom. There were two people in the room with masks, one in our accounting dept. who is a great and very sweet gal. And even she took hers off to speaks and eat. Lunch was served before it started. Another guy from our IT department though was literally double masked. He’s masked all the time. Pretty much the only guy in the building that obsessed with masks. The girl is masked too, but this dude takes it to another level. I’ve never seen him drive up but I bet he’s masked alone in his car too. It’s pretty absurd.

lolAs a matter of personal conscience I voted for Trump in 2020 and I’ll own it. I hope he doesn’t run again but if he does and gets the GOP nomination, I’ll consider the political landscape and likely will have a tough decision to make.
If I am going green I am going mean.* KA - BOOM *

Not on a Prius though.Every red blooded "Patriotic" American should have one of these mounted on their vehicle.
We had one mounted on a jeep at Tan My. We used that jeep when we had to make a run to Hue or DaNang.Every red blooded "Patriotic" American should have one of these mounted on their vehicle.
Appreciate that…. I’m just not a huge Trump fan…. I liked his policies…but him not as much.Ukalum. Not trying to be a jerk at all ... and i have said multiple times i could do without trumps stupid twitter fights w stupid people while he was pres.
But if you cannot see the difference between the two admins, then something is wrong. Things were so much better before china joe. What is better now now that china is in charge?
Again, not trying to be mean (maybe your post was sarcasm and i totally missed it. If so, my bad x100), just saying truth.
They’ve also found several bodies in barrels from the 80s-90s when people from Vegas “Disappeared”.Interesting video about how fast Lake Meade is falling. Video is a bit long but you can fast forward through some of it. This dovetails with the whole water, energy, food shortages that are coming. If the lake continues to fall at this rate the dam will stop making power very soon.
Political landscape? What about the worst recession since the great depression?... That do anything on how you're gonna vote? What about Russia and China threatening to expand their territory with a weak ass pres in office? Does ww3 get a consideration?As a matter of personal conscience I voted for Trump in 2020 and I’ll own it. I hope he doesn’t run again but if he does and gets the GOP nomination, I’ll consider the political landscape and likely will have a tough decision to make.
That’s great for you. I think working from home I get 4 weeks of “vacation” on top of the 6 I actually get. I understand the need for hourly or salaried workers who need to be pushed/supervised to go to an office, but anyone else should be able to work from anywhere. Enjoy that brisket. I’ll take the zero commute and autonomy over my time vs a trip to work.I still work in an office, and choose it too. I work for a great company, I get to travel for them some, which I enjoy. I have my own office. laid back environment, Lunch made free for us every day by our Corporate Chef. (Who's competed on Guy's Grocery Games). Been here 6 years and get 4 weeks of paid vacation starting next year. All around great company to work for.
