Really, and not trying to be a smart ass, but only 2,200 ounces in a ton, or did you mean 2,200 pounds in a ton?



And, a flagon was 20 ounces? Not bad, bigger than a modern pint.

Ok, now I'm really confused, a ton was a unit of measure for currency? (Or are you just being incredibly clever with the homonym?)

I know you're joking but it looks to me like the amount of oil we're producing has been going up since Biden got elected.



Also looks like we're producing more now than when Trump took office. I'm sure that's shocking to some here.



I imagine now that we've cut off Russia we'll be producing even more. The higher price we pay for oil, the more motive for oil drillers to go to work.

actually if you put on your glasses you will see under Biden huge spikes down, enough to create serious hard to recover damage. Granted the source of your graph is also questionable of where you are getting your data from. I mean I can create all sorts of pretty graphs, but they may not be honest. But Oil production should not just increase for the sake of increasing it, it should just be there to meet the need/demand. And that is where the problem is with Biden, the demand is there, but he does not give 3 flying Fs about you and is not willing to do anything about it but purchase oil from the enemy at high cost.

I mean, you go on believing that Biden cares about you and that gas price increase under Biden only (because it was much cheaper under Trump, and good luck arguing that) is also good for your wallet. Believe whatever makes you sleep at night. Fact is, gas cost has doubled and even tripped since Biden got in the office, you go keep working the graphs and the math to come out with excuses.

And you go on with your feelings and strawman arguments. Where did I say anything about Biden caring about me? I feel like Biden cares about as much about me as Trump did. But this is about facts not feelings.



And the fact is the price of oil began rising under Trump (ever since it crashed into negative territory)... I think that was right around the time I invested in oil.... I don't really drive much anyway and I thought it might be fun to make money if gas prices expectedly go up and demand comes back.... Which yes, they clearly are. Hope it goes even higher!



Those memes from the right asking for me to pay for your gas are hilarious though. Sure.. I'll give you some money for gas bro... right after you GO GET YA F*CKING SHINE BOX.



Lol

Oh good so you agree that Biden and Trump does not care about you. So why do you care so much for them? You sure go long ways to defend Biden f-ups, and clearly you also care about Trump and it shows with your severe TDS. Yes prices will go higher, guaranteed, thanks to people like you who vote based on feelings and who man on tv told you to vote for without doing any research on candidate. Lets see how much longer you can last the increasing inflation.

Biden is unaware of my existence exactly like Trump. *shrug*



Biden wasn't retweeting qanon sh*t about covid during the pandemic. Biden didn't call himself a "war time president" against covid and then get the vaccine secretly hiding in a bunker. Biden didn't have to practically be hogtied to get a mask on his face. And honestly I didn't really like Trump since "the Apprentice" and being some blowhard who fires people on TV does not really qualify one to be president. All that talk about voter fraud and then dude literally asks Georgia to "find votes"?? Meanwhile him and pillow guy keep going on with that voter fraud bullsh*t. Any election result he doesn't like is a sham, a fraud, stolen, etc... from Obama, to Ted Cruz, to Hillary, to himself.



Riiight. Let's see how much longer I can last..... against inflation... against the vaccines... world war 3... and so on. I'll be fine. Hey maybe I'll live to see Trump get elected again and we can switch back roles!

?? Lol nah.. I'm good. I simply recognize that y'all have kinda become the libs of 2017. Think about it... Most, if not literally every single criticism the right has to say or has said about Biden was said about Trump.



✔️ Puppet to a foreign government

✔️ Traitor

✔️ Mentally unfit 

✔️ Pedophile

✔️ Will start WW3

✔️ Racist

✔️ Like a dictator

✔️ Corrupt

✔️ Rich / Elite

✔️ National embarrassment

✔️ Liar

✔️ Ruining America 

and so on.....



I mean do you not find that interesting? It's almost harder to think of criticisms which were NOT parallels.

You can be critical of whoever is in office at the time but let’s point to policies not effects with barely any basis of cause. I can get why Biden’s and Trump’s policies in and of themselves unpopular. And I understand that self-interested parties will of course exaggerate the criticisms.



Yet Trump Supporters went overboard with the criticisms as if the over-exaggerated criticisms of Trump merited equal if not far more outrageous reaction. An escalation of alarmism, if you will.



All for the sake of owning the libs.



You got one thing right. Biden doesn’t care about high oil prices. Neither does Trump.



Neither do you.



You and the rest are just clawing for a talking point or echoing it from the media outlets that your representatives pour their money to while hypocritically finger wagging at mainstream media for doing much of the same. I am honestly not seeing much point in talking about politics with people because they’ve gotten so out of hand that people act they’ll stab me if I don’t support abortion or anti-abortion or gun rights or gun legislation. It’s f**king nuts.



And do you know what isn’t helping?



People making shit up.

Not only did production go down but prices as well. So, are you saying the two aren't always equivocal?

Remwmber "Drill, Baby, Drill!" in 2008?



Obama scoffed and told us it wouldn't do any good because it would take 10-15 years to increase production."
