Funny how right after election day gas has dropped in price

[Beerman]

Okay, both you and @SonOfSun are reading what you want to read out of my post. My point was simply that the Democrats did strongly in the midterms while blaming the right on the cost of living while at the same time doing everything they can not to improve it. If they were truly for the people they would have worked harder to improve things, but they didn't want to because that would mean they likely would have lost the elections. They encouraged things to stay badly so that they could win the election. I'm not saying anything positive about what the Republicans did or didnt do; which I stated above. I can find wrong at the Republicans did over the past two years. But that wasn't the point I was making. It was how, in this case, the left was talking out of both sides of their mouths just to win the election.

I will admit to my misunderstanding. In summary, all politicians are untrustworthy clowns, regardless of which tent they perform under.

Was it the one in the voting booth?

There have been NO democrats sworn into Office as a majority, so economic change belongs to the Republicans even when the democrats take credit for it...duplicitous as usual, no plans for "lowering prices" but the fuckers already have some 35 anti-gun Bills they're ready to introduce.
democrats held control on all three levers in NY and where it's ~$3.08 a gallon in SC it's just dropped to $3.99 in Northern New York.

They had a gas war, could still be going on where they dropped the price $1 in Fulton NY and one station said they sold 25,000 gal. So if the other guy sold the same, that's A bunch of money that is profit out the window. What happened to they make .02/gal.

So, what the people really want is a divided government that can't really get anything done ?

Man, they're *so close* to figuring out the real solution.

Ironically, yes. Nothing getting done = nothing changing = stability.

Not a good thing in the large picture, but that is predictable to work around.

Honestly, the way our government fucks up everything it touches, the best thing we could do would be a constitutional ammendment that requires a 90% consensus to do anything in congress instead of just a majority.

Nothing happens unless nearly everyone agrees.

Still $4.359 out here.

You guys got any more of that "cheap gas"?

Right? Its called "conditioning". Our "new normal" isnt $2.49 a gallon. They powers that be count on this. Its tge same with everything. Just look at gun control laws, every generation grows up with less freedoms but that is their "new normal".

When i get real frustrated i just think back to what it was like 100 or even 1000 years ago, they had it far worse. The real problem is that its gotten worse than it was 30 or 40 years ago.

If some how tomorrow gas dropped to two something a gallon you can bet what you are saving that the Witch of Albany and her evil minions will add some kind of tax, probably call it the patriot tax, and their constituents will sigh in relief.
