6.29 here
That’s nothing, a gallon here would be $31. However in the bland UK, we use litres. Our price is about £1.90 a litre for diesel
1.9 x 3.8 (litre to gallon) x 1,35 (gbp to usd) = $9,75. Still a lot more, but not as high as $31.
Make all the things great, price tags, national debt, his book of crimes and general assholery is great enough to be split into volumes by now…
Winning looks so good
Goods? Expensive
Workers rights? Removed
Environment? Fucked
Libs? Owned
Everyone owned. FIFY
Trump made a few hundred million with insider trading so not literally everyone.
Boots? Licked
Datacentres run on diesel generators when the grid cannot provide enough power.
This is why diesel is so expensive.
Also. Also the war and insider trading - you know the regular capitalism stuff.
There is nothing “regular” about the current unregulated capitalism going on in the US at the moment.
So the shitty trading and deals are your pet peeve but not the attack on foreign oil producers.
The great pumpkin SANK 3 tankers last week. Not hijacked or shot at. But sank. Huge ecological disasters. This is all voluntary.
Which could have been mitigated if the big railroad monopolies had electrified their rail like other large freight railroads but noooo no investment only squeezing profits.
$4.43 per gallon is still only ⅔ of the price as in Northern Europe right now lol. But I guess we’re better off to pay for it? Less dependent on it? I dunno. I have an EV so it’s whatever for me, personally.
Ah, I went by the image. Okay, $5.85 is still about ¾ of the price. 😄
Hasn’t been that cheap in months in California. Diesel has been $7 a gallon since February
Still less than 75 % of the maximum price of gasoline here during the pandemic in combination with the Ukraine war. 😅
Diesel is $8.30/gallon here now.
How long is your commute
20 min bike ride. Also I don’t use gasoline or diesel, I have an EV.
So your commute is a fraction of a commute in the US.
Here it might be a 30-45 minute ride in a car. One way. Do you see why $5 fuel would be a much larger problem here?
I have an EV
Good for you. So do I.
Everything you own and eat involves a diesel engine somewhere. That is the real problem. People with EV’s have to eat still.
So your commute is a fraction of a commute in the US.
lol what. My commute is that long. Lots of people have longer commutes than 30–45 minutes here too. I’m one person. An anecdote. 😆
I’m sure plenty of diesel users in America voted for trump, so fuck em
Their goal is to make life nearly unlivable by elections so they can do something drastic.
“…for a long list of goods.”
You mean like anything that traveled a mile on a truck?
Or was planted/harvested by a tractor.
Too bad the train infrastructure in the USA is so abysmal.
