you should really not discuss economics, you are clearly out of your league.

Yurt, I told you I am not going to explain this to you for page after fucking page. Read my post slowly and repeatedly until you understand.
If that doesn't work , have somone else explain it to you.

but you have not once explained how inflation makes gas cheap right now. not once. you really are clueless. you should just run away with your tail between your legs.
 
Rune troll you don't agree with phd's in economics. Have you had 1 economics class in your welders trade school you keep calling a college?
 
Interestingly, the average price of a gallon of gas from 1918 to the present is $2.49 in January 2012 inflation adjusted dollars. So it is safe to say that anytime during that period that the price of gas was above $2.49 in inflation adjusted terms it was expensive and whenever it was below that price it was cheap. So obviously when it reached $4.00 a gallon in July 2008 it was expensive. And with the average for 2011 at $3.51 we are once again expensive.

therefore....at $4, gas is expensive.

once again....dune has been thoroughly refuted.
 
You are correct, the welder is clueless on economics. Further other than cutting n pasting libtard talking points he's unequiped to debate he's on the same uneducated boat as righties bravo and webbway.
 
Rune, what is the title of this thread? What was the early quote you made in this thread with respect to the impact of $4/gal on consumers? That is what we have been talking about for several pages now. Whatever off-topic bullshit you think we are seriously discussing, is precisely that - off topic.

Is $4/gal gas expensive for American consumers to be paying at the pump? Yes or no.

are you too scared to address this dune?
 
The high price of gas is causing a bad affect to our economy. It is costing more to ship food and goods. So the cost of food and everything else is going to continue to rise. Consumers are going to have less money to spend on food and goods because they are having to pay more money at the gas pumps.

Lets see, we have had 2 Quantitative easings by the Fed, printed 16 trillion to hand out to banks all over the world, but those actions have only led to 1.8% a year inflation. Right.

Different link dipshit.
 
It's interesting to me how rising gas prices weren't the fault of an oil man like Bush but they are Obamas? What non-sense. Even if we upped production in this country those bastards in the oil industry would sell it over seas for higher profits and that would do absolutely nothing for gas prices here.

As far as how this will affect the political situation, I think the polls don't tell the whole story. The polls are trying to be representative of the nation as a whole. The problem is, rising gas prices haven't been consistant across the whole nation. They have risen the highest in the West Coast and North East region. Dispite the shifting poll numbers does anyone really think that this would impact the electoral calculus? Does anyone really think any of the west Coast States will vote Republican in the Presidential election? Probably not. Does anyone think any of the NE States, other than New Hampshire, would vote Republican in the Presidential election? Probably not? Is the cost of gass as much an issue in the Midwest, South East, Mountain States or Gulf Coast? Not really. So will there be any significant net change in the electoral college calculus? Probably not.
 
Horse Shit, you can't tell me Bush didn't want Alaska opened up the libtards are too entrenched.
That said, it's moron's like you that I need to than for $110 oil. Fuck $20 oil.

LOL I appreciated that but you're an oil man and you're also making my argument for me. :)

You'd have no problem living with $5/gallon gas if it means you can make greater margins selling domestic oil overseas. Would you?

But back to my main point. How will this affect the electoral college calculus when most of the pain for rising gas cost are in the NE Region and the West Coast? Do you really think the Republican nominee can win California or New York? :)
