I don’t agree with their premise that reducing the cost of gas by .18¢ to .40ish¢ with a tax vacation could increase demand and drive up prices. It’s still going to be north of $4. People aren’t going to go nuts, plan more/longer trips and forego car pooling at that price point. They are going to continue doing exactly what they are doing now and save 18 to 40 cents per gallon doing it. That article/writer is being needlessly alarmist.

$.18 on 12 gallons in my wife's Explorer is about $2.15. At $4.80 the tank goes from $57 to $55.

Thanks I guess.

That’s my point, at $4+ it isn’t enough to change demand.

I get it...it just still sucks. It seems to be an attempt at an "aha" moment from Bidens Admin...and the link said it might backfire. I tend to lean towards your view than the link, btw.

Yeah. I mean 18¢ or 40¢ cheaper for a few months is a far cry from sub $2.50 gal. Biden wants to be able to say he did something no matter how meaningless. Problem is he mentioned the same thing a couple months ago and nada. I don’t think the millionaires in DC really give a s#!t how much we have to pay for gas. Only thing they care about is posturing for votes.

Oops   Apparently Jerome Powell didn’t get the memo about the Putin Price hike false talking points of the Biden Admin.

I've never heard that. 

He is/was accused of sex assault in Sweden, but believe those investigations were dropped. 

 

He said the charges were a ploy by the US...via Sweden

Amazing. 
 

oil production was cut right before demand shot up. Prices sky Rocket. Oil drilling has increased and demand is going down and prices go down. 
 

amazing how that works.

There is no credit to be had by anyone as long it’s still $4.70ish at the pump.
