Cost me about $50 to fill my tank two weeks ago. Today, $75....Glad I hauled our Cat loader 5.5 hrs then, and did not wait. Only get about 7 MPG's when hauling that thing. Problem is, will not be able to haul it back for about 2 months, better start saving $$ for that.

He may be right, we shall see. There will be a shortage of a lot of supplies, i.e. wheat, etc. and the prices will go through the roof.

I just received a few more shipments of Potassium Iodide for just in case. Probably a waste of money because Brandon and his twits will figure this out.

Iran
Saudi Arabia
Venezuela
OPEC



That's the list of potential suppliers the US will look to. Doesn't really strike me as a group ready to cut us a great deal.


It's going to get spicy.

Eventually demand for gasoline will decrease, and prices will fall. During the upcoming recession/depression.

As in Nevada.
We have no state income tax, and a lot of other examples of better/favorable taxation.

HOWEVER... we also have some of the highest taxes on other stuff.

For example, there is a per-employee-tax!
No joke! $100 per year, per employee.
Of course, if your payroll is big enough, that is completely waived.

Sales tax in my county is 7.75%.

The DMV stuff is outrageous.

And the list goes on.

When it comes to taxes, we are, after all, California light.

'Imagine the future when big tractors used for agricultural production and big trucks used for distribution and transportation of goods have ZERO emissions'.





This may happen in a few months because the cost of diesel and fertilizer are SO HIGH, owners CAN NOT AFFORD to run them.


Thank you Kamala for your future forcast .....

COME ON MAN, would you rather it came from Alaska, Canada, Texas or Gulf of Mexico? That would add good union jobs and support business to Americans.
