The Iran war has rattled the global flow of oil, with steeper fuel costs already straining households worldwide. And in the U.S., drivers are now facing the highest prices they’ve seen at the pump in about two and a half years.
According to motor club AAA, the national average for a gallon of regular gasoline jumped over $3.84 on Wednesday, up from $2.98 consumers were paying before the U.S. and Israel launched the war with joint attacks against Iran on Feb. 28. The last time gas prices were as expensive as they are now was in September 2023.
“It’s pretty hard. I mean, times are tough for everybody right now,” Amanda Acosta, a Louisiana resident, told The Associated Press while filling up her car’s tank this week. “I’m getting way less gas and paying way more money.”
Oh it probably is like having a “peace” dial. You can always turn that shit up to maximum war. Turning it down is the hard part and takes work.
Same thing with the economy. Any old ape - as Donvict is demonstrating - can break it. Trying to right the ship takes skill, time and work, something Donvict has exactly zero interest in.
