#11  If you want to create the national crisis to impact the looming political wipe out in November with the risks of investigation and culpability for the looting of the public treasury, then the perfect storm of Roe-V-Wade overturn, The J-6 TV farce, crime waves, gun control, debt overload, massive inflation, food insecurity and $10 gas seems a perfect solution. Civil disorder on an unprecdented scale is being set up as a predicate by DHS for some attempt to control the outcome.

We are down to 2 trips <100 miles week to save gas. From what use to be 250 - 300 miles a week and eating out 3 x a week.

No more running out just for 1 or 2 items and dining out has ceased.

#7  I read yesterday that 40% of US corn production is now dedicated to fuel additives. Think about how that impacts every form of food for human and animal food costs.

#6  Sundance:

"The net result of Joe Biden’s EPA raising the mandatory amount of biofuel that must be present in the U.S. gas supply is this:

(1) Less food as more corn is needed for ethanol.

(2) Higher prices for finished and blended gasoline.

(3) Vehicle engines breaking down at a much higher rate.

The predictable Biden outcome is the absolute worst scenario for the middle class.

#3  The left does want IC engines to go away. But they are over-reaching and when the elastic snaps back it will be vicious.
