North Carolina is about to take another hit. Their storage tanks are being emptied to send gasoline to the VIP crowd in Maryland, Virginia & Washington D.C.

Short Primer:
Oil Companies don’t own the Pipelines
Refineries don’t own the Pipelines
Oil Companies own very few gas stations.
They all work with contracts.

Crude Oil goes to refineries ( most of which are located on the .Texas/Louisiana Gulf Coast and they separated an refine crude into gasoline mixtures, diesel, jet fuel and components for all plastics, paints and so forth.

Different States have Laws that determine the Mixture of Gasoline. Deep Blue States like California, Maryland, Virginia, Pennsylvania and so forth use a different mix than North Carolina. Team Biden discovered that there are storage tanks with fuel in North .Carolina and a lateral Colonial line that could be used to ship it North to Maryland. The EPA just issued a waiver for it to be used in a few States - DC, Maryland, Virginia & Pennsylvania. The Elites will determine exactly what Cities are going to get the fuel.

Looks like somebody discovered that Tanker .trucks couldn’t transport 100 Million gallons of fuel daily.

You are not the first tech aware person that I have heard that.

And now ironically here we are....looking at you with our cars charged up, and thinking "where will you get gasoline?"

Try going on a road trip with an electric car and stopping for hours every couple of hours to charge.

If only we had more pipelines....

I don't believe the "ransomware" thing though, or the fault of the Russians who were also painted as people who would shut off the power in the middle of winter right? If it's possible to do that then we are idiots and everyone involved should be fired. If that's possible then why the hell is ANYONE even using a computer?

Get that gas flowing again, there's really no excuse not to have overrides and backup plans in place.

Just went out for dinner in NC(my tank of gas last a month so think twice before you throw stones) and I saw cars lined up around the corner at stations that were open, they also had multiple 5gallon cans with them too. Its like its the 70s again.

You mean you dont like runaway inflation, and people being paid to sit home and collect unemployment for months and months, while employers can't find help?

You dont like Russia hacking our energy infrastructure and causing gas shortages and rising prices. Will the long lines for gas return? I think I'll buy a used Bolt just in case

You dont like "kids in cages part 2" down along the border, & allowing C-19 infected illegals enter and bussing them all across the USA to spread covid? Where's the science in doing that?

It will take more time for all the terrible junk the Libs are doing now to start really hurting Americans health and financial wellbeing. When it does, the Dem voters will turn on the hard Left Libs now in control, & hand the Pubs back the House & Senate. Biden will be lame duck in his last 2 years, but he'll inflict a lot of damage by then.

Higher gas prices will be just 1 way the Libs will hurt working Americans.
