OPEC, Russia & Saudi production wars, covid, facility closures and greed are more the cause than politics. Wait until you get hit with the seasonal blend price increase.

You know absolutely nothing, but I did have a good laugh at the CNN "facts" thou.

Elections have consequences.

Absolutely--From an article this past April:

"The dramatic collapse in worldwide demand for oil led to an extraordinary development on Monday: U.S. oil prices fell below zero for the first time ever, and kept falling.The key U.S. oil benchmark, West Texas Intermediate, settled at negative $37.63.
Driven by a trading contract deadline, traders desperately looked for buyers for the barrels of oil they normally hold in their books. But buyers were hard to find — even when the oil was being given away for free."

Sounds like a load of BS to me. Like the power company telling us to use less power. Then when people start using less power, they say they have to increase rates because people are using less power.

And the reason President Trump authorized the missile attack:

"The U.S. missile launch in response to the Syrian regime's deadly chemical weapons attack earlier this week that killed dozens of innocent civilians.

"Tonight, I call on all civilized nations to join us in seeking to end the slaughter and bloodshed in Syria and also to end terrorism of all kinds and all types," the president said.

"We ask for God’s wisdom as we face the challenge of our very troubled world. We pray for the lives of the wounded and for the souls of those who passed. And we hope as long as America stands for justice and peace and harmony (it) will in the end prevail."

This is historical commodity pricing of Brent crude:
Out of a 42 gallon barrel of crude the yield of gasoline is about 19 gallons or ~ 45%
At $21 in April the value was about $.50 in an unrefined state
Today's price is currently $65.54--giving the same gallon of gas a value of $1.56 unrefined

Price at the pump is up 69% since day Biden took office. Trump pro energy independence and lowest prices., Biden is not. Take that how you want.
