why would Obama do this?! 😭
Remember all the "I did that" stickers? Yeah.... those assholes are oddly quiet now.
The same ones who harassed and terrorized drag queens for being groomers, they're outside the white house protesting the orange turd for and his cronies for being kid-diddlers right...right?
Funny enough, I think it MIGHT not have been about "protecting the children" at all.
There's "iRAN up your gas!" Stickers being sold now, and I'm REALLY TEMPTED.
It's ironic that a guy who hates "chy-nah" so much and wants to "drill", has likely done more to push Chinese cars worldwide, and EV's than any other president in history.
Whilst quality of life has dropped, he's also done an amazing job in pushing the AUD upwards vs USD too
However the real transformation we gotta do is to move to more public transportation (which can also be electrified) but these budgets are all gone under Trump.
If this continues and people are forced out of their normal single occupant, drive to where they could have walked in 5min habits, I wouldn’t be surprised to see other options pop up. Except not public, but privately owned by one of a dozen billionaires. And you can’t pay by the ride, it’s a monthly subscription to use it. And only white people can sit up front.
I think this idea was floated and partially implemented by Uber already.
People need to realize that it doesn't need to be profitable. Public transportation is a service with many beneficial side effects and efficiencies. The money you lose providing the service to the public reduces other costs. This is why corporations can't and shouldn't take it over.
Just to be clear: it doesn't need to be free. But it could "lose" money.
Yeah he really made my BYD and CATL investments take off.
If you do the conversion, gasoline is about 8.22 per gallon in Europe.
To be completely fair to the americans complaining about fuel prices though. European prices are by design. Prices increasef in the 70's during the oil crisis, and afterwards we kept them high through taxation. We did that to give a larger incentive to oil reducing behavior like buying a car that drives longer per liter, or insulating your house better. This was to reduce our dependance in oil so another crisis wouldn't hit as hard.
USA didn't do that, because USA has/had plenty oil to support itself, and those regulations would mean less oil sales and thus less money for the giant oil companies. Wouldn't wanna take money out of the wallets of the poor rich cunts right?
So in short, Europe voted for less oil dependance because we don't produce a lot of it, USA voted for more, because their rich cunts have always controlled the government.
The taxes thing is important thing to realize, in the US it's like maybe 20cents a gallon and in parts of Europe it's 7 dollars a gallon.
11.26 USD per gallon here in the Netherlands.
All because of one low IQ pedo and the members of Congress and the public that support that pedo.
Okay, but on the plus side we're hardly talking about the Epstein files so I think we can chalk this up as a win for America.
Will that have an impact on the trump phone I pre-ordered?
Gasoline costs 50% more in the US than it did before the terrorist attacks on Iran

I would say that’s lights out for Republicans in the midterm elections, but we are well into full irrationality in this country at this point.
Netanyahu thanks you for your sacrifice.
K but somehow seems less important than the fact that Donald Trump raped and trafficked children and the Republican Party is protecting him.
With that said, sucks it's going to cost so much to light him on fire after dumping gasoline on him, but it's worth it. Think of the children.
Paraphrasing Cory Doctorow, Comrade Trump is hormuzing the world into the full Gretacene.
I am fortunate in that I don't have to buy gas for my car all that often because I don't drive a ton, but I'll have to this week and I am not looking forward to it.
The good news is that it'll be months/years before it ever gets back down to where it was two months ago 🫠
You're not immune. Don't forget, the machines that farm, process and deliver everything into your mouthhole all need to pay for fuel also.
I don't feel sorry for Americans. You voted this orange turd in. While the rest of the world suffers as well
To be clearly, only about a 1/3rd of us voted for him. And realistically, of the registered voters, only a small percentage can actually influence the outcome by way of being in “swing states”.
But yah, I’m pretty fucking pissed at pensilvanians who wrote in Mickey Mouse because they thought it was funny.
I’m personally not that upset about gas prices going up as I can not afford a car anyways.
Your local ambulance and fire rescue’s budget almost just doubled. And mine, my machines all run on diesel which is now 6.49/ gal where I live. A lot of my budgets were written months ago
Its just to hasten transition to electric vehicles. 8D chess
I hope it backfires and increases gen z and alpha support for building out public transit. Viable Metro systems in every US city, commuter rail across all 50 states and national high-speed rail system. If we have those things, who cares how much gas costs
Gasoline costs more right now than any time within my time living in the US
Have the day you voted for wankees.
As an American, I think this is great. I hope it triples.
Man do I wish billionaires actually had to pay for things.
