It’s because oil is a global market and exports are more profitable than keeping it here for some types of oil.

(Side note for those that don’t know: the President has the authority to instantly ban all oil exports at any time)

Which is especially galling since the U.S. is the largest oil exporter.

I wish we’d get cheap eggs and gas. But they’ll probably skyrocket like everything else.

Don’t threaten me with a good time!

I like RCV, but the Portland example makes a good case for STAR voting.

I’ll probably be watching Breaking Points on Youtube. The hosts aren’t unbiased, but they don’t pretend to not be and provide a good balance overall.

Look up prices for housing, food, etc. in your area and compare that to full time at minimum wage. Then consider a lot of companies only hire part-time and not full time. Then consider minimum wage is still the federal $7.25 in a lot of the country. See how that math looks.

It’s not remotely crazy, and I have lived there. I had times where I foraged for berries and plants for food, and was lucky enough to know how and where to do so. That was a long time ago, before wages stagnated and inflation went bananas. I’m surprised more people aren’t starving to death today, just looking at the numbers.

They may be in a comfy bubble but that doesn’t necessarily mean that haven’t worked hard and/or been lucky. Kind of a harsh assumption about a stranger.

2011? Amateur. My email is probably older than you (2004 on Google).

Don’t be Oklahoma, don’t be Okla…awww shoot.
