These high gas prices are part of deliberate policy out of Washington DC. They are currently in the process of using the high gas prices they caused to push legislation that would prevent “price gouging.” But the legislation isn’t meant to help anybody, it is meant to create shortages.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. As terrible as it would be to pay $10 or even $20 for a gallon of gas, I’d rather have that versus not having any gas. Fuel is the lifeblood of the economy. Without it, everything will grind to a halt. But that’s clearly what the criminals in Washington DC want.
