Has anyone been grocery shopping

LOL Maybe it’s time to double that allowance. Who knows…might find cheap steak on menu.

Well, that’s pleasantly difficult to falsify.

Also, do oil companies have any agency or responsibility in this context? Or are they merely passive, irrelevant victims of liberals?

20% per week?? You might want to check your math on that claim.

Biden has been in office for ~58 weeks. At 20%/week, prices would be up almost 40,000x. If you’re paying $100k for a gallon of milk, you might want to consider moving. Even in California, we’re paying a little bit less than that. :grinning:

I am pretty sure you understood the comparison was with the 7.9

I’ve seen few people with calculators crunching the numbers of everything before putting in their cart. I felt bad for them.

Oh no, they are corrupt as hell, all the way back to Rockefeller and Standard Oil. I just think some of the sillier green initiatives that are favored when Democrats are in power spook the oil traders, or allow the oil companies to gouge us because of their “fear”.

My uncle was like that, he didn’t have too. He had enough to have a private nurse the last year of his life then he left my mom enough to pay all of her utilities plus food for almost 4 years. Dude did it because he watched every single penny, he could tell you his net worth within a damn penny…lol

That was before all the new oil. lol

Any abiotic oil people still here?

Fair enough. Unfortunately, I don’t think the free market has an answer to this, that is: aligning the vagaries of complex global energy markets with national interests and ideals.

We’ve plenty of oil but far too many watermelon “environmentalist” nitwits.

…what is a watermelon environmentalist?

I haven’t even noticed a price hike. But then again, I’m not on a budget, nor do I even look at the prices at a grocery store.

I am not on a budget, nor do I normally look at prices but, when a 6 pack of Pepsi that cost 2.50 a year ago now costs 3.50 how can one NOT notice that you are paying more.
