well, if a half gallon (64oz) of ice cream can now be 40oz, then pretty soon gas will be sold at less than a gallon size. Marketing 101.

It's $1.75 a litre but works out to about $6.60 a gallon. I think you guys are between 3.50 and 4.50 depending on the state.

Not to worry, Biden's got this one covered.

Quote:
The White House is looking for ways to reduce US consumption of Russian oil while protecting American families from price hikes, an administration spokeswoman said Friday.

"We are looking at ways to reduce the import of Russian oil while also making sure that we are maintaining the global supply needs out there," White House spokeswoman Jen Psaki told reporters.

Filled up at Sam’s Club this morning at 6a.

2.97

Gas around town is now 3.59-3.79

Drove by Sam’s at 6p and there were lines at every pump of 20 plus cars and they had people directing traffic.

Sky-high oil and gas prices are what liberals want.

It will only help further their ridiculous GREEN NEW DEAL.

So this little by-product of the Russian invasion of Ukraine is just fine by them.

They don't want to kill off people, they want to turn them into party drones, knee-jerk voters of the Democratic ticket, regardless of issues or candidates.
