Something is bothering me- Why have gas prices really dropped?
🗣️ DISCUSSION 💬
It makes no sense afaik, unless Patriots are in control and something devolution-like is going on. Let's hear it peeps.
What is bothering me, is this is the second post I have seen wondering why gas prices have "really dropped," when they really haven't and no one remembers $2/gal....under GEOTUS....wtf.
Not everyone saw prices that low under Trump. Here is East Tennessee, gas prices never dropped under 2 dollars.
In Ohio, under a Trump $1.89/gallon.
what are your local taxes?
Possibly you have forgotten...

That's a big factor here. One local county is usually at least 30 cents a gallon less than in the other counties and the one city nearby. The difference is all local taxes. Now go look at what nearly 70% of that local money goes to in your home local county, town and county (in my state you pay both county and town taxes if you live in a town) or city.
"Now go look at what nearly 70% of that local money goes to in your home local county, town and county".....what is your point?
You had stated your gas prices were never below $2.00...are you still confident in that?
I live in Illinois and over 70% goes towards public pensions of six figure lifetime retirements for teachers....
In high-cost Commiefornia, we saw $2.25 under GEOTUS, and we have the most expensive gas in the country
I watched Die Hard yesterday and regular gasoline was 74 cents a gallon in Commiefornia back in 1988. The unleaded was 77 cents.
77 cents was 1.90 at the time.
