Gas prices

[actaeon277]

And our state is gonna be building charging stations.. I am confused. The state doesn't build gas stations. Our own state is helping drive these gas prices.

because the idiot voters and politicians want the government to do EVERYTHING.

It’s so the people can get to the downtown hotel that the government is also building.
Or to the new business park in Lebanon that the government is building.

Politician supports .gov project that will transfer large quantities of wealth

Politician sees to it that his favored contractor gets some of that cash, perhaps by steering a contract or giving his favored player inside info on the specs the bid is looking for (or both)

Grateful favored contractor returns a portion of the profits on the contract to the politician in the form of campaign contributions, insider trading information, hookers and blow etc

Lather, rinse, repeat

Biden admin takes action restricting oil, gas development after settlement with eco groups

The Biden administration is cracking down on the oil and gas industry, issuing new restrictions on vessel traffic following a recent settlement with eco groups.

www.yahoo.com

"This decision by the Biden Administration does an end-around legal requirements and the public process, imposing unwarranted restrictions on U.S. energy production at a time of continued inflation with prices rising at the pump for consumers," said National Ocean Industries Association President Erik Milito.

"The NTL, coupled with the broader Stipulated Stay Agreement, poses a barrier to America's energy production capabilities within a region that not only sustains hundreds of thousands of high-paying jobs but also yields some of the world's least carbon-intensive barrels," Milito continued. "Despite lacking ample scientific evidence to support such extensive bans on operations, the agreement targets the domestic offshore oil and gas industry."

Don't worry lockdowns 2.0 are coming.
Ya won't need gas anymore.

What if everyone just told the government to suck it?

Democrats suing Democrats so Democrats can "settle" by unilaterally rewriting laws to suit Democrats.

This is not good. Fuel prices are going to go up because of this.

It was a single naptha storage tank that caught fire.
The fire according to reports was contained to that storage tank.

If they stay shut down after that fire is out it will make zero sense.



The fire was contained and none of the actual production plant caught fire.

Well, at least we are setting record levels of LNG exports to Asia and the EU. Trillions being made thanks to our allies not having a choice and at home NG prices will of course go up(those evil stoves and power plants!). Of course we are conserving gas by not exporting to countries that do not support LGBT,as a matter of national pride I assure you(not to mention there are not enough ships to meet the demand of EU and Japan already)...sorry Egypt you just have to count on China and Russia,like you have been for decades.

Natural gas deliveries to U.S. LNG export facilities set a record in first-half 2023 - U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA)

I thought the summer blend was worse?

 

[Zexrain]

If we had Trump in office the northern pipe line would still be coming along if not close to finishing and we would see the bedlnfits greatly.
