Gas prices

[moose65]

We’ve all heard for months that Trump has brought gas prices down (which is baloney of course). Pretty soon, though, we are going to reach the point where gas was cheaper last year under Biden.

I check AAA almost every day. Today, the average price per gallon for regular gas in the US is $3.17. One year ago on this date, it was $3.23!

1. In Westchester County, north of NYC

I saw quite a variety of prices from $2.99 to $3.69 all within 1-1/2 mile of one another!

2. We on the West Coast can only dream $3.17.

7. I don't know, but it falls into the category of necessity for people even more than eggs...

6. They will have to do it. Not for a good reason.

2020 Covid gas has a limited shelf life. The tourist have not come. People don't have money for traveling. They will have to dump it.

8. How does Biden do it?

He has been out of office for the year, yet he somehow manages to spike the gas prices!!!!

9. It Already Is Higher Here

In the collar counties of Chicago, it's hard to find gas under $3.50.
I've seen it as high as $3.899 for 87 octane.
I looked at my price history spreadsheet. On my birthday (about a week away) last year, gas was $3.269. So it's 23 or 24 cents higher than a year ago.
