Memory Lane......... Remember those not so good old days of $5 a gallon gas? Obama Wanting $7-$9 a gallon Gas Prices and His Secretary of Energy Steven Chu Admitted it "Somehow we have to figure out how to boost the price of gasoline to the levels in Europe." How the lefty libtards ridiculed and made fun of those who promoted "Drill Baby Drill!" Those Republicans put their money where their mouth was and started in drilling despite every EPA obstacle Obama and his ilk could put in the way.... Take a good look at what production does to prices. Oil traded near $45 a barrel following a fourth weekly loss as U.S. drillers continued to add rigs and Libya boosted output, blunting OPEC-led efforts to rebalance an oversupplied market. West Texas crude is at $44.75 for delivery in August. Oil slumped to the lowest close in seven months last Thursday amid concerns that rising U.S. supplies will offset output cuts by the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries and allies including Russia. OPEC and its partners have curtailed production in an attempt to reduce bloated oil stockpiles to the five-year average, but increasing numbers of rigs in America, as well as rising output in Libya, is putting that target in jeopardy. We have gutted the economy of socialist Venezuela. The middle east is feeling the pinch right along with Putin. The oil industry sure the hell was NOT colluding with the Russians. The Dakota access pipeline is in place and flowing. However, this pipeline will only handle about half the daily production of the Bakken/Three Forks production areas. The Dakota Access Pipeline ( DAPL ) is the safest and most environmentally sensitive way to transport crude oil from domestic wells to American consumers. Contrary to the FAKE NEWS propaganda the pipeline does not cross the Standing Rock Sioux reservation, even at the portion of the pipeline that was the subject of dispute at Lake Oahe, an Army Corpse of Engineer's man made lake. Soooo With the 4th of July holiday approaching us .. remember how we always used to have to buy ahead and get the tanks all filled up before the prices shot up due to shortages? We are rid of those dirty bastards and back to a free market economy by American ingenuity and investments. ENJOY the cheap gas it will be with us for a very long time. When you go to fill up your car just remember who to thank for the savings leaving more money in your pocket. |

Oil companies are greedy, and will always take advantage of every holiday to boost their retail prices of gasoline and diesel. We are currently paying $1/L for regular gas, and it goes up about 10 cents every long weekend. The price of crude has very little to do with the retail prices of gasoline. If crude pricing went down to $30, we'd probably be paying even more for gasoline than we do now, because the oil companies would cut production, creating an artificial shortage, so they can have an excuse to jack the prices. Please do not credit your favorite polytishin for low gasoline prices; it is not a political issue.

It might not be a political issue for te Nanny State of Canada where the government takes way more than it's fair share in taxes placed on a liter of gas. Here in the USA Oil Companies only ear 10-15 cents per gallon of gas delivered to the pumps while the federal government takes 18.5 cents a gallon in tax the rest taken by the states varies from Calipornia which gouges their motorists 90.62 cents per gallon while New Jersey meets their needs at only 14.5 cents. Canada collects on average 24.5 cents (uS) per liter with a great deal of variance between provinces but that converts to a staggering 95.8 cents (US) per gallon. Newfoundland & Labrador have the highest TAX at $1.837 (US) per gallon and the Yukon the lowest at 64.4 (US) per gallon... If I were you I'd be inquiring as to just WHY your government deems it necessary to take from you these outrageous sums. My home state manages with just 32 cents per gallon our roads and highway serves are exceptional as is our Highway patrol

Just recently Ontario; the province that I live in; just added a carbon tax on top of the multiple taxes that we already pay; to add insult to injury the federal government over the next year will be adding another carbon tax. The upshot is that even now we pay taxes on taxes of product we could end up easily paying three or four levels of tax, on tax. I am hoping that we will end up with a more conservative government here federal and provincial at the next elections. However I am afraid that the perceptions of the world surrounding Pres. Trump will prevent such an outcome. An example of this can be seen in these recent English election; wear a shoe in almost got booted out. Heaven help us
