@LandOfConfused Hello Mr FieryUSA. I didn't know she died. How sad. People will politicize everything and anything, even making breakfast and taking a shower. Is it healthy to go looking for it all day every day? You know it's there. What are you achieving?
@LandOfConfused spend a few minutes answering your own question. There is extensive information available from every flavor of source there is on Iran and the groups it funds all around the world and all of the murder and terror committed. You don't get to ignore that, that's just bad faith TDS
@LandOfConfused Thanks for the TDS perspective. Don't care. I have another perspective. The worlds #1 perpetrator of global murder and terrorism is attacking global energy because they are facing being destroyed. I would assign blame on them, not people doing something about them.
@LandOfConfused and then... wait for it... the people who sold you that gas, everyone involved in actually making it possible for you to pump into whatever piece of shit.. make $0.00 - $0.01 on that gallon at any competitive station. with $0.05 being an outlier
@LandOfConfused I'll encourage this.. look into regulatory compliance costs, federal royalties & fees charged to produce that gallon, corporate taxes paid by every entity responsible for getting that gallon to you, taxes on the business that sells it to you, and wait.. theres more
@LandOfConfused In TN when you pump gas, government is taking 45 TIMES MORE money from you than anyone 'profits'. This is the biggest factor in what raises your costs. Do you understand this?
@LandOfConfused And how do you use the term 'price gouging' when talking about an industry that is so competitive they operate on the thinnest profit margins of any industry, ever? The govt is who increases your costs dramatically. Particularly when democrats are in power and looting.
@LandOfConfused yeah, I can. Why can't you? The Inflation Reduction Act (lol) alone increased costs directly for you in several ways. Increase on royalties is just one, a hike from 12.5% Minimum to 16.67% is the Govt taking an additional 33% and fucking you in the ass.
@LandOfConfused I completely disagree, I think Trumps decision on immigration will have very profound measurable effects for many decades and there will be clear comparisons to other western nations who are currently in crisis, who criticized Trump lol. Along with a dozen or so other policies.
@LandOfConfused I defend some things and criticize others. You're just heckling and not making any difference, you don't matter. You just pout and make busy posts that turn into busy threads of whiny angst that are laughed at today, and will be forgotten about entirely tomorrow.
