It's all such b.s. too, Gasoline is our #1 export...still. We are importing OIL to make gasoline to...sell to foreign markets. But the amount of oil we get from Russia is MAYBE 10% at best, so no way is this 200% increase in fuel costs due to the conflict in the Ukraine. Not to make this political but shiite was going to hell insofar as fuel prices due entirely to Bedpan. I bought 100 of the "I did that!" decals and have been putting them on gas pumps...when I can find a space, lol. Most the pumps around here are already COVERED in them.

We live in Lafayette , la. Sales tax here in Lafayette has been record after record the past year or so , as well as outer surrounding areas. This is oil land/equipment manufacture , support , etc.
I know of at least a dozen or so building projects (retail, car wash ,general business offices) currently under construction right by me . Rising material cost isn't slowing anything down.

Houses, from small low 200's to 4+ million going up everywhere. Selling as fast as there completed.

Restaurants -PACKED! WITH LINES WAITING.

NEW vehicles- all those BENZ,BMW,Infinity,Audi that use premium fuel, have fun with those fill ups .

Diesels, everywhere and the hay bras with the giant tractor tires ...pffft they gonna go broke rolling coal.

Food- wheat hit it's highest ever this week per bushel . Fertilizer through the roof.

I , at 52 think we are reaching peak insanity.

Funny thing is I still have some memory of the last 2 times in my life when petro products did this, but neither of those times we didn't have inflation on fire and a Government run by complete ,inept employees.

With WW3 going hot , God bless us all.



Went to the RaceTrac to get a cup of coffee this morning,

87 -$3.89 Diesel $4.34 insane..

Need to put Vaseline around under your cap when filling so you and your boat both know it’s getting a good fken! Hard to say summer will bring. The rich are just getting richer including biden over this crap.

1MOSES1 03-06-2022 07:37 AM

Worst part is the gas you are pumping was likely purchased weeks before the war even started…yet we are paying war time prices. Smh

Everything you buy is what it is worth at time of purchase, not when it was made or dug up.

There was a conspicuous void of bad actors on the world stage between 2016 and 2020.
Wonder why? Trump didn’t speak softly but they knew he carried the big stick.

Thats a good point right there that often gets overlooked. I’m still gonna throw chewed bubble gum on biden if I ever see him. 😂

This is what happens when you elect a president by mail. and/or when you get offended by mean tweets and voter manipulation via the media. Thank the sheep !!!

Barely a year in and facing possible WWIII and nukes. If I were a “team blue guy” and prone to using bookface etc, I’d be working hard to erase my presence before being perceived at child molester levels.
Even here, there were a handful of Trump haters that you don’t hear a peep out of now.

ironhead 03-06-2022 11:12 AM

the stage was set when a election and its absentee voting system that worked good was hijacked, un informed were let to vote which is a privilege and a duty , a virus was weaponized against all PEOPLE all COUNTRYS
a media was no longer a media- its sensationalism - and pandering , stories are no longer "scooped" or sourced but re hashed from face book and the like and PRESTO CHANG-O we have a government stuck on stupid , as i say
YALL VOTED FOR IT NOW PAY FOR IT , MY BOATS WON'T STOP RUNNING fact is thell go faster ill have less stupid on the lakes to dodge .
1.88 a gallon and some lousy unpredictable tweets and rallys

Wife and I just got back from Hawks Cay fishing for the week with our boat. Left LOTO diesel was $3.89. Most places on way down we paid $4.15 at Loves truck stops. On the way home I was shocked when I seen price. WTF!! Highest price at truck stops was $4.99gal. Credit, $4.95 cash

450k- house down the street sold for 1.3million the other month. Should they have sold it for the 450k it was worth last year ?

Peep. The Ukraine is fighting for their life but Russia will do what they do best which is to level the country, they are a pawn. Trump has an election to lose, he's not interested in this mess. July 2008 gas was $4 a gallon, I retired in May that year and we ran the boat a bunch just as most everyone here will this summer. Everyone here says the cost of gas is the cheapest part of ownership. Ed

getrdunn 03-06-2022 02:40 PM

Yeah at least gas doesn’t brake down. Well on an occasion you can get a bad batch but you made sense. Heck look at the cost of boats let alone repairs. Kinda funny I bought my 1993 challenger super v28 with twin 454’s new from the factory for around 50k. (Little under) Same boat today through a dealer would’ve been well over 300k

Funnest and best handling boat I’ve owned.

Dean Ferry 03-06-2022 03:19 PM

Let's Go BRANDON! Get ready for $10/gal gas in CA, $8/gal everywhere else:

That’s all well and good but Brandon has years left and his lack of vision (except for commie chit) is getting grander and having far reaching consequences. China and Taiwan are on deck, as well as a host of domestic issues. Not saying Trumps perfect, but your guy is a F’ing disaster, Trumps “disasters” were media creations for the most part.


liberator221 03-06-2022 04:09 PM

The only reason Pelosi and the crew are on board with banning Russian oil is it fits their agenda of eliminating fossil fuels. They think the country can survive and will be better without it. What a bunch of idiots. The green agenda is a bigger hoax than covid!! They could care less about Ukraine

DRAG 03-06-2022 04:13 PM

Look at the bright side…there will be less wake boat traffic on the water just like the Obama days and there will be a bunch of used boats on the market. The real boaters will still be out there.

lets go Brandon

Biden will not get much done without a greater Senate majority or are you worried the blues may gain a few more seats this November ?

Right on man! We’re still going it’s just gonna hurt. Probably more hanging out. Boats will be cheap this fall.

Not concerned about legislative matters, there are still two sane democrats left.
He conveys an image of weakness that is and will be exploited abroad.

All President Trump wanted was the NATO countries to pay their fair share of the NATO $$.
What's Trump's Position on NATO? - FactCheck.org

And now EU countries like Germany are increasing their defense budgets, because with Brandon sitting in his basement in DE, the US can't be counted on for anything anymore, except for crap like this:

Wouldn’t you think they’d want to keep down as much as possible within reason through midterms. Not looking like it as it would make sense then they have something major false flag etc in store to delay midterms.??

I read a couple of days ago that fuel is expensive and its about to go up more - we all know that. But food prices are set to take a 800% increase. Supposedly Russia/Ukraine are huge providers of fertilizer. Apparently, they expect a fertilizer shortage soon and its supposed to make food prices shoot off the map. FJB
