Yeah and the north east gets its diesel from abroad, because since the price is all the same, it’s cheaper to ship it in, than to truck it over the Appalachian mountains where there’s no pipelines or refining capacity anyway.

So diesel might get cheaper in the gulf, but if global prices rise, so will the price in American places with imported fuel. Trump is a moronic rapist.

    The rules still allow rich people avoid jail immediately by paying $50.

    If you don’t pay you have to roll doubles to get out, but it you don’t roll doubles on the third try, you have to pay the $50 anyway.

    Remember, $50 is the cost of a house on side properties.

    This is kinda like real life, where you can pay good lawyers and avoid time/conviction, or rot in jail and still owe when you’re released.

    I use it for ill. And occasionally it saves me money on long ass road trips where I don’t have time for anything else.

    I also use Waze to report non-existent cops on my street that gets used as a quarter mile drag strip shortcut all today long.

    It’s not usually just thst groceries get expensive. They usually get incredibly scarce too.

    People starve when things collapse.

    Revolutions happened with people starve.

    Lots of people die when revolutions happen.

    None of it is necessary if democracy can actually happen. We need citizens united, first past the post, and the electoral college systems removed. Then shit can change.
