@palacecapper@Cryptoboyy_Aji You’re comparing saving $20k at 5% to the interest paid on your entire mortgage. Is that $20k somehow paying off a $600k mortgage?
@jasongordo626@MotioniesT@ScoutingEnjoyer@RpsAgainstTrump@grok People cannot understand that we will always be subject to the global rate of oil. We currently produce more than import, we could be completely free of global influences but our companies are for profit and will always sell at the highest price possible
@MotioniesT@jasongordo626@ScoutingEnjoyer@RpsAgainstTrump@grok And also Russia did play a role- we don’t have to be taking in Russian imports to be affected by the global price of oil. US companies will sell at the global rate, not offer a discount because they can. They’re for profit companies and will set at max price point
@MotioniesT@jasongordo626@ScoutingEnjoyer@RpsAgainstTrump@grok You understand back to driving in late 2020 aligns perfectly with prices exploding in early 2021 right? It’s not instantaneous that supply can’t keep it, it takes a short period of high demand before you see price increases. This isn’t super hard to understand
@R2Think@JetSetGent@atrupar The economic crash was in 2020 where oil was so cheap they had to stop production to present a collapse. Of course prices were low the world economy was shut down. Inflation was the result of it all opening back up and demand increasing. It’s really not hard to understand
@doggy2965@bblock1924@BucSidelineGuy That’s a different conversation than the assumption that lawyers can force the PGA to because “not fair for bryson”
@wmcp046@Acyn None of this means anything if one party wants to vote to ban it and the other refuses. You wasted so many brain cells doing these gymnastics when you know there’s a very logical answer to this
@JeffRoushPoetry A congressperson lying about the contents or impact in a piece of legislation they are voting on should be a felony level crime. Elected officials are put in office to work for the people, lying about how a potential bill might affect those people should be criminal.
