    Good price on gasoline, runs almost $5 a gallon here.

    Tomatoes are around 20 pesos for a kilo, which is 2.2 pounds. So we do save on produce!

    Anything imported from the USA is getting expensive as the dollar weakens and the peso strengthens. Seems Mexico is on target to become a wealthy superpower as America fades away into chaos and self-destruction.

    Here in deep blue Washington State gasoline is 4.49 per gallon as the punishment for climate awareness by big oil goes on. All hail the capitalist crooks who wouldn’t recognize or support a fair and free market if it hit them side of the wallet.

    Gas here is now generally running 3.28/gal, still up a dollar from 2 years ago. America is really missing the shutdown pipelines, and the EV push is quickly finding that electric prices are going up while the shutdown of many gas and coal fired powerplants is about to limit availability, and predictionsof blackouts this summer are beginning aleady. Should tell us that the grid is nowhere near ready to support such unicorn dreams

    As of Nov 2020, the average gas price nationwide was 2.10/gal, then came the green energy push, the assault on fossil fuel, the shutdown of pipelines, and the increase in price by over 2 dollars per gallon, in some locations reaching $5/gal. Gas prices are only down in comparison with the super gouge brought on by bad policies

    Panic in the streets! Global warming, caused by CO2 emissions from burning fossil fuels is causing warmer summers. I know, let’s just turn up the old AC and burn more fossil fuel and emit more CO2! What could possibly go wrong?

    By the way, global warming is really the correct term and climatologists overwhelming are supported by real data….not pablum peddled by Republicans. The ignorance, greed, and malice of big oil/coal and it’s political stooges is numbing.
