Because I'm smarter than you and most other people, and made one hell of a life for myself by saving every cent I could when times were good and then making some extremely wise decisions with them. Shame about the little drunken 5-year hiccup, but I've long since recovered from that and now I get to sit back and watch the proles scramble about and tear each other apart for the scraps. I also get to opt out of any external attempts at holding my job hostage unless I get an untested vaccine without ever having to worry about how the hell I'm going to feed myself if I don't submit to tyranny. By the time I will have run out of money, I'll get to watch and see what happens to all of you and it will be about as long as it normally would have taken for a new vaccine to have been tested before they started using human beings as test-subjects en-masse. Don't be a hater, bitch.

Nobody is going to care about them when next month's heating bills roll in.The reason your heating bills will be higher is that you are too stupid to blame your fuel supplier rather than the Democrats. Your fuel supplier knows you are stupid, which is why your supplier can easily raise prices and then laugh at you all the way to the bank depositing your money.

There are too many people dumber than you are. You can't even be the best at that.Are you calling stupid the idea that Biden does NOT cause price increases in America because prices are also rising in places where Biden is NOT President? Price rises aren't controlled by Presidents, but all the Trumptards I know in Texas are absolutely certain that the President controls prices, including control of the world price for petroleum. By the way, the world price and Texas price for petroleum are very close, with only small differences because of transportation and refining costs. Presidents have no control over crude prices and never will because crude can be shipped from anywhere to America. Coming from anywhere makes the price about the same everywhere in the world. https://www.thebalance.com/crude-oil-brent-versus-wti-808872 Is Biden President of the World?

Quote:Originally posted by 6IXSTRINGJACK: Second likes to pretend he has half a brain. If Trump told OPEC not to pull any shit, they'd listen to him. When Biden begs OPEC to lower gas prices they say Fuck Joe Biden. It's also the "green" policies the US and the EU have dived headfirst into that are the reason we have zero reserves right now. EU is "willing" to pay those high prices because they fucked themselves and if they don't pay them then they will all freeze to death over the winter. Food goes up along with everything else when everything else goes up in price. Especially gas, which everybody needs to pay for and which drives the costs of everything else up.
Quote:Nobody is claiming that brain-dead Biden* is sitting there in the Oval Office and raising all of the prices of everything himself. It's the horrible policies that Democrats are passing that are making everything rise. And seriously. Fix the fucking shipping problem already. What the literal fuck. You're a fucking idiot, Second.

Many people don't actually buy volumes of gas. That is why Libtards like being anonymous city slickers, so they can have trains, buses, elevators, cabs.

People who suffer are the same people who are absolutely certain they already know what they absolutely don't know.

You certainly aren't changing anything by posting here.You seem to completely misunderstand who benefits from inflation. If you can raise your prices, you benefit, but then you are causing inflation for those poor souls who can't. It's pretty straight forward how inflation works and for who it works best. And it is even easier to understand why prices can't increase too fast: buyers wouldn't be able to pay and sales would collapse to zero dollars per day, which doesn't benefit sellers. Competent sellers know the story about killing the goose that lays the golden eggs. Raising prices too fast kills the goose.

Quote: US Regular Gasoline Price https://fred.stlouisfed.org/graph/?g=LyA9
Quote: Fuel has the reputation of being very price-inelastic: Consumption changes little even when the price changes. One way to illustrate this relationship is to compare the gasoline sales with prices. https://fredblog.stlouisfed.org/2014/12/keep-the-car-running-retail-gas-sales-and-prices/
