I know this is not the exact right forum to post, but many people drive here.
Right now very few countries are buying Russian oil, after the war, will countries still not buy it? If so, gas prices might average above above 4$ for a very long time.
When President Trump left office, the United States was energy independent, and gasoline was in the neighborhood of $3/gallon. What changed??? The answer is quite obvious, and all we have to do is revert back to the Trump policies, and we'd be energy independent, once again. Think about that......and if you choose to indeed give it some thought, be honest with yourself!

countries are still buying Russian oil,but the problem is -it is not easy to find carrier and insurance.
I don’t think the pressure on Russia will ease up until after Putin is no longer in power and whomever is his replacement makes an honest show at not trying to follow Putin’s expansion though assassinations and military force.

So, in other words, go against the centuries of the historic way things are done in Russia?

Ok, since you want to get political... We are honest. When Trump was in office he had a pandemic that he dealt with really badly, demand cratered as no one was flying, or on cruise ships and everybody started working from home and not commuting. So supply and demand meant oil prices tanked, with gasoline prices following. Trump's policy of making sure that Saudis stopped producing (a policy and trade agreement that ends this year) also meant that there wasn't enough production and supply when demand went back up now that everyone is back to work, flying, and on cruise ships... Since production and supply remained low when demand shot up, the laws of supply and demand meant prices shot up.
Here it is from one of your favorite right wing outlets, praising him for that historic deal that caused production to remain cut after demand went back up AND talks about how those low oil prices from the drop in demand meant a lot of oil producers in the US went bankrupt.
Reading between the lines shows that the pandemic was horrific to the oil companies and his Covid policies meant that the country wasn't ready for what happened then or after.

Ummm Trump handled the pandemic very well and started the process to get two vaccines approved in record time. It was democratic run states the had the worst problems and still do.

You left out the fact that once Biden took office he put a stop to the oil pipeline and put a stop to measures Trump had enacted, both of which caused a spike in oil prices and a reduction in oil production within USA lands and waters. Sadly environmentalist claim to want to protect the environment but by trying to restrict oil production in USA they are hurting US workers and harming the environment by sending oil production to countries whose oil production do not have the EPA restrictions placed on US oil production. While many foreign oil production pay virtually slave wages on workers, US oil production pays living wages and supports many surrounding businesses and industries. While US oil production must meet strict EPA standards on pollution, many of their foreign counterparts don’t have such restrictions and freely pollute the air, land, and water. While a newly built refinery can produce gas and diesel in a much more efficient manner in higher volumes, environmentalist prevent such refineries from being built through lawsuits and like minded government officials.
