Title: No Gas
Post by: Becky (My pronouns are Assigned/By/God) on May 08, 2022, 04:27:15 PM
Just went to fuel up and there is NO GAS at my local Exxon station. Southeastern Washington state.

”Pumps closed due to supply shortage” sign on every pump.

I survived the 70s fuel craziness but have never seen this before.

It’s a weird feeling.

   Get use to it.  FJB has been selling our Strategic Oil Reserve to Europe.  Oil companies have leases but can't get permits to drill.

 Oh, and we have a pending food crisis to follow on.    This is the America Biden and the Lunatic Left want.

Here in New England fuel oil is very popular for heat.  On 9 Feb this year I paid $3.69/gallon for about 175 gallons.  That lasted until yesterday bought another 175 gallons for $6.19/gallon.  Our house is very well insulated.  Talked with a friend who works for the oil company we get fuel from he says it will get worse and from what he hears supply is not going to be good next winter.

Quote
The Biden administration has canceled one of the most high-profile oil and gas lease opportunities pending before the Interior Department. The decision, which halts the potential to drill for oil in over 1 million acres in the Cook Inlet in Alaska, comes at a challenging political moment, when gas prices are hitting painful new highs.

In a statement shared first with CBS News, the Department of the Interior cited a "lack of industry interest in leasing in the area" for the decision to "not move forward" with the Cook Inlet lease sale. The department also halted two leases under consideration for the Gulf of Mexico region because of "conflicting court rulings that impacted work on these proposed lease sales."

Federal law requires the Department of the Interior to stick to a five-year leasing plan for auctioning offshore leases. The administration had until the end of the current five-year plan — set to expire at the end of next month — to complete these lease sales.

And as usual, they are way to ignorant to realize the consequences.

The world runs on Fossil Fuels.  That's not going to change anytime soon.   This is a willful destruction of our standard of living and quality of life.  It is akin to stealing.

The will simply limit your purchase to $50.  Once it hits that number, pump stops regardless of how much gas is dispensed.  There's a shortage, don't you know.

There usually is a limit. Back during Obama’s reign of terror, I found most pumps shut off at $90-$100.

I have a 36 gallon tank in my F-150. Do the math. Like then, I’m now filling up when I only use 18-20 gallons. Madness.

Memorial Day weekend we are moving my mother-in-law from Wisconsin to Ohio. We are renting a 16 foot moving van to do it. I'm going to cry when I see how much it's going to be to fill that tank up when I return it. I'm hoping I don't have to fill up on the drive across. Illinois and Indiana toll service center prices are some of the worse prices around. I will get off an exit and drive a few miles out of my way if it saves me .05-.10 a gallon.

I believe it was more a function of credit card fraud limits and has nothing to do with any shortage of fuel.

I think you guys are saying the same thing. Democrats cause high gasoline prices due to their rhetoric and stupid energy, and foreign policies  so criminals are more likely to steal it due to it's higher value.  Don't know French.

Not in wide use.  I never saw a locking gas cap until people reported their tanks being siphoned during Carter's "energy crisis."  People resorted to gluing razor blades to their gas caps to deter theft.

https://www.prageru.com/video/why-are-gas-prices-so-high

This guy interviews a bunch of people about why they think gas prices are so high.  A lot of them repeat the Biden/Media lie that it's the Ukraine/Russia situation. When he explains that it is actually that we have restricted domestic production, he makes them think.  I especially like the guy that says, [if we produced our own energy]..."...it would be a lot more reliable. I've not thought about that before," you can see that he is open to new information.  The grip the left has on mainstream media is as bad as Putin's propaganda in Russia.

I certainly saw locking gas caps in the early 70's.    Waaaay before carter took office.

Let's start with CATL, the Chinese-owned, lithium-battery company.   Guess who owns a huge part of the stock?   Some guy named Hunter Biden.

Oh, and guess which country has one of the largest concentrations of lithium?   Afghanistan.

And guess which country now has a huge interest in Afghanistan since FJB pulled out?   China.

Exactly!  What a fucking scam and every government that makes cars are in bed with the car companies to mandate these crap EVs and ban ICE cars.  All for money, more power over us and to limit travel.   

Also why Biden will talk tough on Taiwan then back down.
