The average price of gasoline at the pump is now above $4 in every U.S. state for the first time ever, with the average national price of gas reaching a record $4.567 a gallon.
While some states like Kansas, Oklahoma, and Georgia saw their fuel prices tip over $4 for the first time last night, others like California are averaging a record $6.05 a gallon at the pump, according to the American Automobile Association (AAA).
They tried during Obama's Administration but didn't quite get it done in every state.
More like congratulations to Shell and other oil companies for making more effing money than ever effing before!
Tell me what Shell has done to contribute to this situation.
We know what Biden has done.
Prices are rising around the world. All of that is the doing of the man y'all believe shakes hands with thin air and can't go to the bathroom by himself? Tell me how that works again
But, yeah, blame this president and the one before last, too
Good, now they will have the funds to invest in finding new resources. As long as government gets out of the way, the market will take care of itself. Of course, Brandon is standing in their way.
Correct. The Democrats actually encouraged Putin to invade Ukraine to drive up oil prices.
It’s a fact. I saw it on Facebook.
Oh, you're going with the Putin angle instead of the Oil companies gouging? How progressive of you since 2008. Used to be the fault of the oil companies. #Hillary#pelosi#Biden#everydemocrat

Joe, you've been fooled. I like you but dang, you're being lied to. Go look at PROFIT MARGINS and the up and downs of the oil industry.
For such a powerful industry *cough* they lose many many billions some years and the raw resources are often in the control of foreign countries (like Canada, Saudi Arabia etc.)

Yup. Obama clearly stated higher energy/fuel prices as a goal.

Much of it is global but a lot is that the emphasis is on moving off gas to renewables. Right?
Sooooo, imagine your company makes hula hoops but the government is saying they cause spine injuries and will eventually phase them out. So, what do you do when a surge of interest in hula hoops spikes prices? Invest in a 10 year recoup by building a factory? Or do you say, well this is temporary and if we build a new factory this will bankrupt us in the future?

Oil prices are high, but they have been this high before like in 2011-2012 and parts of 2013 and 2014 and gas was never near this high. Oil prices were in fact much higher reaching a record of like $140 something in 2008 and gas prices still were not near this high!!
Its mind boggling. Are they having production and refinery issues as well?? Cause we have seen this rodeo before in oil prices yet gasoline prices while high then were not near this bad.
