That's not the right question.

Will it last to November?

That will be popular.

You don't think gas could be $5\gal by November?

Economics isn't hate, it's just reality.

Fed is worried enough about skyrocketing gas that they delayed a rate cut. 
They are kinda screwed.  Stagflation is a motha.

Their dual mandate is full employment and stable prices.
If they stimulate to try and save people's jobs,
they will only crush them with inflation (already a problem and now nitro boosted by the Special Military Operation).

Good luck with alllllll that.

I think it's been a couple weeks and as expected oil prices have gone up. Soon they'll go back down. Way down. I think you guys are afraid of that. We'll see.

I think it will go down someday.

I'd honestly be surprised if that was this year.

The hate is strong with you guys.

Yes, we forgot the rude labeling attacks.
Yes, we forgot the constant bashing to the former.
Yes, we forgot the living hell and embarrassment your tribe brought us all.
Two weeks, all will be better. Happy now?

You tend to have an issue taking what you put out.

Gas prices were a bit over $5/gallon during the Biden administration, mainly due to the Bolshevik invasion of Ukraine.  We didn't have a societal meltdown.

I didn't say societal meltdown.

You don't think people driving to the polls passing $5 gas is going to have an effect?

Well, we'll see.
