Make all the things great, price tags, national debt, his book of crimes and general assholery is great enough to be split into volumes by now... |

That's nothing, a gallon here would be $31. However in the bland UK, we use litres. Our price is about £1.90 a litre for diesel |

Datacentres run on diesel generators when the grid cannot provide enough power. This is why diesel is so expensive. |

Also. Also the war and insider trading - you know the regular capitalism stuff. |

There is nothing “regular” about the current unregulated capitalism going on in the US at the moment. |

Which could have been mitigated if the big railroad monopolies had electrified their rail like other large freight railroads but noooo no investment only squeezing profits. |

So the shitty trading and deals are your pet peeve but not the attack on foreign oil producers. The great pumpkin SANK 3 tankers last week. Not hijacked or shot at. But sank. Huge ecological disasters. This is all voluntary. |

$4.43 per gallon is still only ⅔ of the price as in Northern Europe right now lol. But I guess we're better off to pay for it? Less dependent on it? I dunno. I have an EV so it's whatever for me, personally. |

Ah, I went by the image. Okay, $5.85 is still about ¾ of the price. 😄 |

1.9 x 3.8 (litre to gallon) x 1,35 (gbp to usd) = $9,75. Still a lot more, but not as high as $31. |

Their goal is to make life nearly unlivable by elections so they can do something drastic. |

Hasn't been that cheap in months in California. Diesel has been $7 a gallon since February |

What math are you using lmao. The Pound is not that much more than the Dollar (£1 is $1.35), and a liter is not that much smaller than a gallon (1 gallon is 3.79 liter). 1 US gallon in the UK would be £7.20 which is $9.73 To be the equivalent of $31 per gallon, it would need to be £6.05 per liter. |

Still less than 75 % of the maximum price of gasoline here during the pandemic in combination with the Ukraine war. 😅 Diesel is $8.30/gallon here now. |

So your commute is a fraction of a commute in the US. Here it might be a 30-45 minute ride in a car. One way. Do you see why $5 fuel would be a much larger problem here?
Good for you. So do I. Everything you own and eat involves a diesel engine somewhere. That is the real problem. People with EV's have to eat still. |

lol what. My commute is that long. Lots of people have longer commutes than 30–45 minutes here too. I'm one person. An anecdote. 😆 |
