Gasoline prices went up again about a month ago

@Bri89 Yeah, that's exactly what the oil companies want to see happen, genius.

@MarkPaul It doesn't matter anymore what the oil companies want. The big auto companies are slowly starting to transition to electric, and within ten to fifteen years you won't be able to buy a gasoline-powered car.

@Bri89 That's most likely true. But, the big auto companies don't control the price of gas.

A rocket surgeon chimes in..😂
We have never stopped buying from the Middle East….never.@Confined

The point being..lumber is expensive..because of pent up demand in housing..@twiigss

@SW-User Before the whole virus thing started, gas was $2.69. During the shutdown gas prices dropped to about $2.40 here locally. Even when things were opening back up, gas was back at $2.69, but continued normal fluctuations, between $2.69 and $2.74. But then, about 2 or 3 months later, it went to something like $2.89, then $2.96, $3.05, and it's been climbing steadily ever since. It hasn't fluctuated lower, it's only been rising.

@twiigss The Saudi’s have agreed to increase production next month and going forward.
It is what it is.🤷🏻‍♂️

@MrAboo That's the same thing I've heard. Were the pipelines still being constructed or were they fully operational?

@twiigss I don’t know for sure, but a lot of ppl lost their job when bozo in office shut it down.
