Washington State Preps For $10 Oil — May 19, 2022

No demand destruction yet. But Washington State will still vote for Biden-Harris. Fine with me. I’m moving into “bunker mentality.” This looks ugly and scary.

Links later. Google it. Easily fact-checked. The good news: Washington State folks are very, very well off — they all have 6-figure jobs with Microsoft. Ten-dollar gasoline will be just fine.

Time for President Biden to freeze gasoline prices, nationalize XOM.

  1. I live in Washington state and read that national story. The station with $10.00 fuel is in Auburn, WA and close to a racetrack. The $10.00 fuel is actually racing gas no great for regular cars. With our taxes, I'm guessing it's not too far away.

    1. Thank you. Much appreciated. The big concern is that retailers are upgrading their gasoline pumps to show $10+ / gallon.
