Rising gas prices hitting US household finances and more pain is expected​

55% of Americans report financial impact from rising gas prices
87% expect further gas price increases amid Iran conflict

Trump's approval on cost of living is at 29%

WASHINGTON, March 20 (Reuters) - Rising gasoline prices are already starting to bite U.S. household finances and Americans overwhelmingly expect fuel costs will keep climbing as President Donald Trump's war with Iran crimps ‌global oil supplies, a new Reuters/Ipsos poll found.

Some 55% of respondents in the Tuesday-through-Thursday poll said their household finances had taken at least "somewhat" of a hit from the increases in gas prices. Among those seeing an impact, 21% said their finances were affected "a great deal."

The average price of gasoline in America has surged by nearly a dollar per gallon since February 28 when the U.S. and Israel attacked Iran, prompting Iranian counterstrikes on the energy installations of U.S. allies and the effective closure ⁠by Iran of the Strait of Hormuz, which carries one-fifth of the global oil supply.

The economic risk is so dire that the Trump administration has mulled deploying thousands of additional U.S. troops to ensure safe passage of oil tankers through the strait, an endeavor some officials have warned might require deploying U.S. troops to Iran's shoreline.

And pain at the pump will inevitably lead to pain in the economy as a whole. We're already seeing that.

I don't hear anyone in his admin bragging about the market being over 50,000 anymore.

That's why Trump can't just cut and run from this war now and unilaterally declare "victory". He got himself stuck.

Iran has leverage over world oil prices by controlling the strait of Hormuz and executing an asymmetric form of warfare in the Persian Gulf region.

Iran can't keep the straits of Hormuz closed. We are striking their anti ship missile bunkers and the Warthogs are vaporizing their mining boats.

They have built equipment that can be strapped onto any dual motored boat to lay mines and operate drones. This will be Iraq and Afghanistan on steroids.

Their means of production has been blown up. So every drone they launch they can't be replaced. The Warthogs will vaporize any boat that tries to mine the straits. If Iran mines the straits they hurt China who buys their oil.

They are lying to you. Their drone production is spread over many areas deep in the mountains. You are a fool to believe Hegseth, he was advised by Caine not to do this.

Your obese Messiah only got lucky to ride the coat tails of the Obama economy from 2017-2019; other than that your Messiah's tenure in office has only ranged from mediocre to unacceptable
