Good God.

The price of oil diminished because the expectation is for a recession in Europe, and perhaps the US.

You know---less demand.

 

Claiming that Biden did it with the release of the US Strategic Petroleum Reserve is the stuff of idiots.

 

 

We are being run by idiots so...

Gee, what happens in a month ?

 

 

 

A LEADER would be fighting for them cancelling a production cut, not just a delay.

Trump is the enemy of the people. 

 

They're coming for entitlements

i have to disagree here… a leader wouldn’t object to production cuts at all. Not one that positioned climate change the way he has. 

 

don’t tell me fossil fuels pave the path to human extinction out of one side of your mouth then bargain for more production of it out of the other. They should cheer raising prices and reducing production..  isn’t that their path to green utopia?

This is where they'll tell you to stop buying stuff.  

 

 

 

Btw....The removal of plastic bags and checkout lines with actual human cashiers has been one of the most devious backdoor ways to force less consumption to appease the fundamental environmentalists.  

 

Every shopper reconsidering a purchase bc they can't carry everything or have enough for the self checkout they don't want too much.  

 

 

 

Whoever forced this sham on us didn't give 2 ***ts about the people shopping for families of 4 or 5 or 6.  

 

4 kids! they'll say now.  You are insane for having more then 1!  How can you afford more then 1 kid!!

Didn't know the Duggar Family were Bills fans.

This is my number for my family of 4, wife, 17 year old and 12 year old every two weeks. I shop as cheap as possible but my grocery bills have jumped over $100 a week over the past two years. I still buy deals when I can but very few exist right now. If you are under $75 a person per week I would be shocked

i went to Wegmans today and they dont have bags but our other local grocery stores still have plastic bags here in VA.  my gf is a big time environmentalist so she loves the no plastic bag thing.  she works with sea turtles and too many bags do end up in the ocean but she also knows when its time to clean the litter box a reused plastic bag works perfectly.

As old Joe would say, c'mon man. Is that for one week? $300 per person? What the heck are you eating? Ain't nobody spending that much for eating at home.

 

Come on.  Being vegan ain't cheap...

Has there ever been a more on-brand Bills fan inflation analysis? 😃

Quick math: about 3.50 a pound is what I’m seeing = 28 pounds. 10 wings per pound = 280 wings. 
President Biden, if things continue like this I won’t be able to buy 280 wings to feed my family next week!

the ultimate inflation buster:

1. Go to Costco. Head to back of store. Eat all samples. Circle back for seconds as soon as ancient sample server has likely forgotten you (10 minutes tops). Avoid purchasing cheesy seasonal decor on way in (or out). I no longer even bring matching Santa and Mrs Claus gnome-like statuettes out of the attic. Also avoid booze area on way out. 
2. Pick up rotisserie chicken. 
3. Head to front of store for $1.50 hot dog and drink combo. 
4. Have heart attack at 65 and Medicare will pay for  in-room hospital dining. 
5. Repeat.

You still think $40 a day per person is unreasonable?  Most good cuts of steak of $15 a pound at Publix, lunch meat is $10, decent seafood is $20 a pound,  fruits and vegetables have gone up substantially if you want anything out of season. Now add in anything that is a luxury, like a dessert or alcohol and $40 a day is something you do easily. 

I understand this is not groceries but my AC went out this week and it cost me $2k to get the full repair of what would have been a $700 repair a few years ago due to supply shortages. The part is literally in such short supply that paid $800 for it when in 2019 it was $150

I just heard on a local show that the American people have had a extra $450 a month added to their over all expenses since the same time last year that's quite a increase especially for folks that are on fixed incomes . Tell Joe thanks ...
