US Oil Producers Fail to Produce

[Methais]

Hey, Seran, oil is up 5.5% so far today, at 104 dollars a barrel. Remember just yesterday when you told us all that Biden saved us from high prices? I suppose now Biden once again has no control over the price of gas and the oil companies are to blame?

It's Trump's fault today.

No one said they don't need or enjoy massive profits from inside sales, you're playing devil's advocate with that piece of information and are now trying to argue with yourself, because you're the only one who apparently disagrees they have larger profit margin. Furthermore, "fees" levied by state, county and federal jurisdictions are added to the price of fuel and passed on to cover those costs. Lastly, you think gas station clerks are making $15 an hour? You're drunk. The article I posted cited daily or sometimes multiple times today, if you want to argue about their methodology, feel free to email them why you think Bobby Joe's Jesus Shack, Fuel and Bait Bucket in Podunk WY needs to factor in so heavily with their numbers.

Depending on where you live, but gas stations around my area are offering upwards of $18.50 per hour for third shift and $17 for first/second shift.

You really should stop trying to always talk down to people about things you don't know about, this way you'll come off sounding less like a retard.

Glad to see Democrats are still using the classics.

This sounds like the perfect opportunity for you to go out and open a profit free gas station.

Of course, we all know you would give up on the venture the moment you were faced with all the government hurdles involved just to open your profit free gas station.

Lastly, you think gas station clerks are making $15 an hour?

If that's the minimum wage law in your state, then gas station clerks are literally making at least $15 an hour.

How much is California's gas tax going up? The State's transportation website lists that starting Friday, July 1, the gas tax increases by 5.6%. That takes the current tax up to 53.9 cents per gallon, which means you'll be paying 2.8 cents more per gallon.Jun 22, 2022

CA being CA. five and a half percent tax increase during a fuel crisis.



California: We're giving people a rebate to help people with fuel costs!

Also California: Raises taxes on fuel.

Talking down to people who have nothing better to do than make up entire debates that have never happened, baiting for really eye rolling gotcha moments and for being unrelentingly partisan is a constitutional right I'm told. Sorry if that hurt your feelings. (I did it again!)

/Some/ areas in the nation have higher costs of living, some states have higher minimum wages, but let's not pretend California's wages apply to the entire country.

$200 in underground tank fees for a 10,000 gallon underground gasoline tank, omg. They're gonna have to sell an extra couple of cases of snickers bars a year to cover that outrageous cost.

That fee is charged every time they add fuel to the storage tank. It's not a monthly or annual fee.

The projection level on this post is over 9000.

Hey Seran, on a scale of 1-10, how much do you agree with Biden about gas stations being the problem with gas prices?

Snicker bar sarcasm aside, if you don't think that's priced into their posted fuel prices you're absolutely crazy.
