Well, well, well...how surprising (gas)

[Tree-Hugger]

About a week prior to the election, gas prices in my area (Philly and burbs) began rising rapidly. Many places I frequent have been below $4.00 for a while, but rose above that days before the election. I noticed the prices have been slowly coming down since yesterday. A few stations I passed today were back under $4.00.

I just find that interesting. 🤔

1. Yeah, desatan and the republicans let the twenty five cent gas tax expire just before the election.

I knew they would. Asshats!

Paying the fascists to undermine democracy..they try to control the government in any way money can buy.

Eat the damn rich. We cant afford those rich traitorous pigs. If they manipulate prices to make repukes win take thier godamn money tax them to death.

6. Every single station around here put it up to $4.15 last week

Oh but there’s no collusion??
This is why we have inflation. Huge corporations have agreed among themselves to not compete. I’m old enough to remember the “supermarket wars” of the 70’s when inflation was a huge problem. Back then this town had 5 major supermarkets and they were in fierce completion. Where Economy Originates! Lowest Prices Everyday! Etc.
Now we have 2 supermarkets that don’t even try to compete. You go to one or the other, either way they’ll both do fine.

7. The day after the election, all talk of inflation vanished too.

What a co-winky-dink!
