The United States of America is the world's leading producer of gas-pump ready Diesel Fuel, which is drilled, manufactured, and refined right here in the USA
We are also the product's number one exporter
Maybe the companies doing all that production should consider keeping the product in-country and affordable, or are they really that stupid, or, no..
Greedy
The bullshit corporations holding the gas have once again decided that making more money abroad while the prices are spiking due to international conflict is more important than a stable American economy
The gas companies are full of shit
American Capitalism's perhaps but hopefully not fateful flaw is Corporate Personhood, which creates a monetary value incentive for every terrible thing that happens to the American People via the opportunity to make more money for shareholders via the pure unmitigated greed of the stock market
Investing is cool, but there's no rules on the road to profit, and there's no prophet on the road to rules connected anywhere other than as a table flipper
Jesus said it's easier for a rich guy to ride a camel through the eye of a needle than to get to heaven and he's probably right
Corporations are not people, except that they are allowed to leverage collectivized-corporeality no-thanks to individual dumbass greedy bullshit politicians and lobbyists and Gollum-like idiots who will do anything to win at any cost, including lose everything
If diesel prices are spiking to demonic levels, never forget that it's Americans who are doing the devil's math to make it happen, and every neighbor with a dollar in the pot reaping what they sow for it, including our actual enemies
If American corporations wanna be people so bad, tell them they can suck my fat red American dick, lick my blue balls, and kiss my white ass
My rig is gonna bust from all the pressure at the pump
Get the fuck outta here with that shit
If gas companies value foreign markets more than local ones, fuck it, deport them to a nation they have no business in and charge them tariffs to work our wells with a legal hurdle for fixed-price affordable and profitable American fuel to benefit the United States
