Are you going to peel off the "I did that" Biden stickers from gas pumps now that the price has come down or are you going to let Biden take credit for it?

Has the price come down? It’s still over $5/gallon in CA.

  Used to be near 6$ in CA. $5/gallon is roughly where it was pre covid

    Nonsense: https://www.ktvu.com/news/californias-average-gas-price-rose-to-5-per-gallon https://www.ktvu.com/news/californias-average-gas-price-rose... This is an article talking about how $5/gal was breaking records. It’s still higher than that now.

    For those curious, it was between $2.78 - $4.25 according to this site https://www.gasbuddy.com/charts https://www.gasbuddy.com/charts

  In North Jersey it's down to $3 at some stations which is great.

  We just ended a historic streak in which the price declined every single day for over three months, actually.

You might want to go look at the pumps today since the price is now going back up. Look at prices when he took the oath and compare. Putin didn't do it all. Shutting down US production was a huge mistake.

  *citation needed. Oh nevermind. US Field Production of Oil: https://www.eia.gov/dnav/pet/hist/LeafHandler.ashx?n=PET&s=MCRFPUS2&f=M https://www.eia.gov/dnav/pet/hist/LeafHandler.ashx?n=PET&s=M... US production in 2022 is up 29% over 2021 (when Biden took office) US production in 2022 is up 22% over 2020.

    Loook at thr graph, still below 2020 production. Biden has said many times and taken actions against the oil industry.
    - crazytony 4y ago
      Yeah. I did. I can apparently read and do simple math. The monthly numbers for 2020 are: 12,852 12,842 12,797 11,914 9,713 10,442 11,006 10,577 10,921 10,457 11,196 11,169 which yields an average production of 11323.83333 thousand barrels a day for the year. This year, production is the following: 11,369 11,316 11,701 11,668 11,615 11,816 which yields an average production of 11580.83333 thousand barrels a day for the year. 11580 (2022) is greater than 11323 (2020) by about ~22%.

        I should have said beginning of 2020 or 2019 (e.g. before covid). Even the growth since Biden took office looks slower than before from the graph.

      Can you provide many quotes of Biden saying he was going to take action against oil industry?

Aren't the prices still way higher than they were the day Biden took office?

Yes this economic house fire was put out by adding more gasoline to the fire. Eventually, there will either be no more gas or the house will be completely burned down.
