He might not directly but with regulations and the red tape it will force it to end, because the plans are to be rid of fossil fuels which to me means fracking will end.

We will lose our energy independence, then the price will go up.

I remember back about fifteen years ago when truckers were parking their rigs because it became unprofitable to run them down the road when diesel prices spiked. Here we go again.

The price of oil is mostly determined by the strength of the American dollar. What happens to that dollar will be a result of what has already happened.

Take a look around, beans, wheat, corn, scrap iron, copper all up.

Get your traps cleaned up boys.

Not exactly Nome. Higher OIL values with consistent production costs equals more profit for oil companies. Higher gas prices might come from higher oil prices, or they might come from increased fuel tax or tariffs, which doesn't contribute to profits. High oil prices are good for oil economies like ours, but not for consumers outside those economic circles.

Couple days ago it was $2.29 gas, 2.69 diesel here. Didn't check today.

Back in 1972, just as I was going on active duty in the Navy, there was a gas war going on between the gas stations in LaCrosse (WI) and I paid $.09/gal. Filled up my Dad's Ford Pinto for about $.80 total. The average price of a barrel of crude was $3.50-5.00 +/-

The 1973 oil embargo started the ball rolling on higher gas prices in the U.S., and it continues to this day. Regardless, we pay well below what drivers in Europe and Asia pay.

Just saying....

I got myself a seniors' GPS.
Not only does it tell me how to get to my destination,
it tells me why I wanted to go there.
