Gas prices reach new record high

Original Article

Posted By: Black Conservative Voice, 5/17/2022 10:21:15 AM

Average gas prices in the U.S. reached a new record high Tuesday, according to AAA's gas price calculator. The national average cost of a regular gallon of gasoline hit $4.523 early Tuesday morning. This topped Monday's record of $4.483, which in turn had beat Sunday's record of $4.470. The price comes as the European Union edges toward oil sanctions on Russia amid the Kremlin's invasion of Ukraine. It also comes amid record-high inflation, with the consumer price index reaching 8.3% in April, hovering near March's 40-year high.

Comments:

Of course, it is and will continue because it helps the Democratic agenda... Pushing electric cars. Doing away with gasoline engines. Record-breaking administration. Be proud liberal progressives.

# 1 Not so fast. Wait. $200 a barrel and $ 10 + a gallon. Captive people without much food. So easy to control.

But burning down the plantation to keep the slaves contained has some drawbacks even the bidets can comprehend. And the great electric car king is pulling the curtain back on their twitter scam. I think it’s time for slow joe to start punishing the people who are acting economically rationally rather than with the sole purpose of making him look good. The punishment will increase until joy returns to the land!

Here on the homestead we have always stored 30 gallons of gas for the generator and 20 gallons of diesel for TK's tractor. Our local Safeway offers gas points for use at their station, one 10-cent point earned for every $100 spent in groceries. We would earn 10 points in 5-6 weeks, we are now earning them in less than a month. (I'm expecting Safeway to raise the amount spent for points to be changed in the near future.) Whenever we reach 10 points ($1.00 off each gallon) we top off our vehicles to empty all the cans for the gas run into town. This practice has now become a financial investment.

Just paid $4.99/gal for 87 grade in northern Nevada. This was at the cheap station, but not Costco. Thanks Biden.

And they aren't done. They want us to be like Europe. A few years ago, I was buying diesel in Italy and France for $9 a gallon. Probably higher than that now over there, and headed there for us. They hate your freedom to hop in your big, nice vehicle, with a powerful engine and cruise down the highway at 70+ mph all day, and go where ever you choose, without them controlling you. They want that freedom ENDED.

Liberals obsess over imaginary problems and in so doing create real problems. Grifters also prefer imaginary problems because it frees up 100% of the money for the big kickback.

Re #4. Consider getting a dual fuel generator, which can run on either gasoline or propane (LPG). Propane or LPG will keep indefinitely, like many decades, as long as the tanks don't leak, where gasoline is good for max a year, with Stabil. You can get conversion carbs for many engines if you and TK are handy, or I understand that Generac has a new line of generators which are set up to just switch between the two fuel types, as needed. Best wishes in your homestead. My of the grid place in the mountains of Colorado uses propane for cooking, refrigeration and hot water. Wood heat. Solar for lighting and pumping water from the cistern which takes little power. Pumping from the well to fill the cistern takes more power than the solar system can provide, so about once a year or so, we must run the generator to refill the cistern. We've been sorting this stuff out for 30 years, and I am thinking hard of getting a bigger propane tank and buying the dual fuel generator and being more secure in my storage of generator fuel for long term. Still need gasoline for the chainsaw for wood.

#9 - Thank you for your interest in our homestead. We just installed a new Kohler generator as part of our "off-grid" project for the house. It has more power than the old one, which is now a back-up that joins the other two back-ups. (Our original Generac for the old cabin, and the Westinghouse for the new cabin we're building.) The new generator is hooked into our propane tank, 500 gallons that we top off twice a year. The propane runs our stove, clothes dryer and furnace. We mainly heat with a wood stove, but having a furnace is nice for chilling winter mornings! We signed the contract for our solar project on February 4th. We've faced supply chain problems, but the lithium batteries have been installed and wired. The new generator finally arrived two weeks ago. We already had a solar panel array that we put in 12 years ago to do inter-tie with PGE, but they don't make those panels anymore. Our contractor has been searching for new panels that will be compatible, but he called yesterday and said he got a lead on some available. He's going to the warehouse to make sure. I believe that is the last big component for which we've been waiting. TK is the overseer on this project, I just write the checks! Your get-away cabin in Colorado sounds lovely. The mountains always safe. The Bible tells us so in many passages. God bless you and Mrs. DVC when the shiite hits the fan. Hope you can get there.

Something is wrong with President Joe Biden, and everyone knows it. But it would at least be nice if the president knew what he was talking about. Biden’s handlers came up with a new way to deflect when Joe has one of his “cognitive spells,” he simply fluffs it off with a self-deprecating joke, and the audience awkwardly laughs. The entire “Alzheimer’s moment” is just laughed off, and brushed aside as if it’s some normal, everyday occurrence.

Russia has reportedly moved missiles capable of firing nuclear warheads close to its border with Finland amid heightened threats over the latter’s bid to join NATO. A fleet of more than a dozen military vehicles moved down a highway — including seven that are thought to carry Iskander missiles, a video clip shared by Reuters Monday shows. They were taken to Vyborg, a Russian city on the Finnish border, “as soon as the president of Finland said they were joining NATO,” the unidentified narrator of the clip said.

We found a video from the 2019 Dem primary debate, where Kamala Harris is looking and acting like she’s intoxicated as she speaks with Joe Biden. The video was cut out of ABC’s debate coverage and we can all tell why. It’s really over the top. Now, the reason this caught my attention is that over the past year, I have done several pieces on Kamala, where she behaves like she’s drunk. She gets really, really animated, and loud, which is quite a juxtaposition from her usual cardboard personality.

A Donald Trump return to the White House will see Dr. Anthony Fauci heading for the exit, America’s top infectious disease expert promised Sunday. The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases director used an interview on CNN to reveal he does not want to serve under the former president if he is re-elected in 2024 and would likely resign. “If Trump were to return to the White House as President, and COVID was still a threat or there was some other public health emergency, would you have confidence in his ability to deal with a pandemic of this nature? Would you want to stay on at your post?” Acosta asked Fauci.

New York Gov. Kathy Hochul slammed social media platforms in the wake of the livestreamed mass shooting at a Buffalo supermarket on Saturday. Payton Gendron, 18, allegedly was recording with a camera affixed to his helmet and broadcasting to Twitch when he killed 10 people in a racially-motivated attack at a Tops Friendly Market, police and reports said. Hochul said social media outlets need to crack down on content concerning white supremacy and other dangerous ideologies and found it inexcusable that Gendron’s graphic stream wasn’t taken down “within a second.”

Residents of rural Conklin, New York were stunned Saturday by the news the gunman accused in the Buffalo supermarket attack was a teenager who lived in their town. Payton Gendron, 18, allegedly drove his parents’ car over 200 miles from Conklin to Buffalo Saturday to massacre 10 people in a racially motivated mass shooting he live streamed on Twitch. Conklin is a sleepy community of about 5,000 people on the Susquehanna River just north of the Pennsylvania border in Broome County and 10 miles south of Binghamton. The population is 95.7 percent white, according to Census estimates. Photos from the shooter surfaced this morning and it seems they might explain the whole situation

ARLINGTON, Virginia — Pro-abortion protesters outside George Mason University’s Antonin Scalia Law School Thursday afternoon called for “mandatory vasectomies” and claimed that “the Bible itself tells you how to perform abortions.” About 30 abortion advocates gathered outside the front entrance to the law school in Arlington, Virginia, to protest an address set to be given by Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito at the school. The address was being given by Alito remotely from the court building while fallout from a draft opinion overturing infamous pro-abortion case Roe v.

Nine firearms were recovered from the scene, after dozens were seen fleeing, Milwaukee police said. "Everybody started running," witness Brittany Bergstrom, who was at a nearby restaurant, told FOX 6 in Milwaukee. "There was a stampede, people running over the shrubs, hats shoes on the ground, drinks spilled everywhere." She said her boyfriend pulled her behind a brick wall, "and if he wouldn't have this outcome would be a lot different. And that's all I know and everybody took off running and I just kept running."

The company at the center of a baby formula crisis could face criminal charges, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said Tuesday, as Democrats considered new government controls over the baby formula industry. “I think there might be a need for indictment,” said Mrs. Pelosi, who has realigned the House agenda to address a baby formula shortage. Democrats are also considering legislation that would give the federal government more control over the supply and distribution of formula, particularly when shortages arise. The plan would require formula companies to report inventory to the Food and Drug Administration, which could then move supplies from one state to another to fill empty shelves.
