Meanwhile, back in the real world, global emissions are growing, not declining and global TWh of energy consumption is growing, not declining... despite all of the taxes and renewables to Cool The Earth.

Buy hey, Joe seems to think that "Gas Station Owners" are to blame, while threatening price gougers in Florida...

Any couple earning 100k-150k a year aren't going to make it in Cal. Not even close. 500k gets you a home in gang-banger central. Now, 6.40 a gallon of gas?

Time to seriously think about leaving.

California and other liberal states has to support the illegals and homeless some how.

I was watching Die Hard (1988) the other day and there's a scene where a gas station in the background has gas listed at $.74/gallon (in LA).

It hasn't always been Loony Tunes here. Remember CA gave us Ronald Reagan, the ex-Governor of CA and Reagan won 49 states in the 1984 election.

Read more about this....from foreign sites, not US.

What was OPEC output before the pandemic ?
What was it during the pandemic ?
What will it be if they cut ?


They probably will since recession is here as well as in many other global markets thanks to ridiculous gov. spending.

OPEC+ to consider oil cut of over than 1 million barrels per day

There are 5 listings in all of LA for a 3/2 house that are under 500k. That's it.

Yes back in the real world.....As long as China and India continue to build coal plants don't expect any cooling of the planet any time soon.
The time for Nuclear is almost gone but its the only way to combat global warning. People in Germany are kicking themselves for closing down their Nuclear power plants and depending on Russia for gas and oil.

You're right. California used to be a destination for millions to seek a new life until the state was hijacked by the fringe left.

That's just not true. If Trump was President, the same thing would be happening.

The US was not energy independent under Trump. That's a fallacy. I've never seen any real proof it was true.
