Highest gas prices ever! Let's Go, Brandon!

Crazy!

The only thing is, they have to stop at the border and show ID to get back into the USA.

 

[RB 60]

OK, grandpa. You won't be driving much longer, anyway. Time for Bingo and the Early Bird Special, isn't it?

I'm surprised he can get in and out of it.

Americans have ID's (including voter ID's). Shouldn't be a problem.

I'm sure he's a skinny millionaire like all the rest of the braggarts on JPP.

But there's a line for citizens.

Texans heading back from Mexico have to sit in their idling cars while waiting in long security lines to re-enter the United States. Wait times at the international ports of entry in El Paso average about an hour during the week and up to three hours on the weekend.

Yeah, poor us, huh?

Idling takes a lot of gas...

Idling takes a lot of gas...

Most new cars have an auto-shutoff. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Start-stop_system

If they were illegals they wouldn't need to wait.

Not everyone owns a new car.

Nope. They just sneak across like the millions that already have (and continue to do so).

Well you know what came after Carter who Biden is a worse president than...

Republican landslides for years.

When you hit Americans in the pocket, the gas tank, and the dinner table, they do not forget things like that very quickly.

Normally, quite right. However, there is still the problem of election fraud by Democrats.

Oil companies already have 9000 leases they are sitting on. They accumulate them for tax purposes. https://www.washingtonpost.com/climate-environment/2022/01/27/oil-gas-leasing-biden-climate/ Can you recognize the truth?

They can't drill on them without the permits, dude. Permits that Biden won't issue or cancelled.

That's a lie. You didn't initially tell it, but you are repeating it.

Indeed.

Civilized nations, completely unlike ourselves, have adequate public transportation.

Define 'civilized nation'.

Personal cars should be for personal use, not for commuting to work.

Who are you to dictate what people use a car for? Fuck off.

My Jeep Grand Cherokee has a huge hemi V8.

So?

On the one hand, a smaller car would not meet my comfort requirements.

So? Drive what you want.

On the other hand, putting more than 5000 miles a year on it would be socially irresponsible.

Why?

Also, I put fewer miles than that on my vintage Corvette in the summer. Back and forth to the golf course, basically.

So your golf course is closer than 5000 miles. Meh.

Trains are for going to work in most places, but not in irresponsible America.

Not practical. There's a reason passenger rail doesn't succeed in the States.

I don't know of a viable solution at this point. We may be pretty much fucked.

The solution is simple. Produce more oil and gasoline.

Why not just smuggle the gasoline?

 

[Matt Dillon]

Why not just smuggle the gasoline?

A) It has to be produced.

 

[Into the Night]

A) It has to be produced.

It is being produced...in Mexico. I am talking about smuggling gasoline in from Mexico.

The Republicans only have to show the progression of prices and have an audience with a capable IQ to demonstrate the war isn’t the issue for prices.

Pain at the pump is going to be pain at elections for democrats. It’s going to benefit the Republicans November.

 

[Earl]

You can't snap your fingers & make 50% of our energy needs from green anything. Only a moron doesn't know that. But democrats went ahead with the goal of destroying our gas & oil industry anyway. And now this is the mess we find ourselves in. Could the democrats have found a better way to screw the poor & middle class people? I honestly don't think so. For once I'm thinking that they may not get by with blaming something they did on someone else. We will have to see in the next election, won't we?
