Today’s economics lesson for the SW lefty haters

When WE add the Iran oil to the Venezuela oil and US oil we will be back below $3 for gasand perhaps closer to $2. Meanwhile are good friends Russia and China will be getting none. That alone might be enough to topple Putin. Perhaps we may choose the arrest Putin like we did Maduro. It will put China on an evener keel with us economically except when we cut off AI chips for them. The rest of the world is dealing with tariffs. Despite the lefties here crying about tariffs we barely felt them. Put this all together and the deficit melts away.

At least one of you is able to red and maybe even comprehend. Please state which sentence you don’t understand and why. @samueltyler2 @PicturesOfABetterTomorrow

@jackjjackson We understand perfectly. Trump is your entire personality. So you have to pretend he is a genius because your own self esteem is dependant on it.

@jackjjackson I considered not responding at all, but maybe you really do not realize that your comment really doesn't make any sense. So here goes:

the tankers we seized are costing us millions of dollars a day to keep (https://www.nytimes.com/2026/03/13/us/politics/trump-seized-oil-tankers-cost.html?unlocked_article_code=1.TVA.c5LH.vyL72XWMrhKY&smid=url-share)

the price of oil is nearly $100 per barrel, do you think oil will be below $3 per gallon, are you mixing the price of oil and gas? The price of gas here was $2.60 a gallon 2 weeks ago now a dollar more, how do you think that will drop?

@samueltyler2 He also seems to have a head injury because he seems to believe based on nothing at all that Iranian oil will be going to US and western markets and not Russia and China which is the complete opposite from reality.

And on top of that he thinks looting a single country illegally (Venezuela) will magically change things. It objectively is not. The current situation has proven Venezuela is irrelevant.

And apparently Jack flunked out of high school because he still doesn't understand how tariffs work or that the SCOTUS just declared most of them illegal and now the treasury department will need to figure out how refund them without bankrupting the US.

Then again having no idea how economics works is a requirement for MAGA. Ditto for the requirement of failing high school.

Tariffs based on a different law are already in place. Please be truthful and acccurate. That is why you lose every discussion. @PicturesOfABetterTomorrow

My opinions are based on facts. You don’t profess any opinions you simply claim the opinions of others are wrong for no reason other than your name calling. @PicturesOfABetterTomorrow

The new tariff is based on different reasons and circumstances. @PicturesOfABetterTomorrow

@jackjjackson I guess ignoring reality makes ignoring basic morality easier for your cult too I suppose.
