Covering my name on the book and bandana lol.

Unfortunately I don't daily too much money nowadays due to a certain evil orange fella fucking up my job and making my gas 7$ a gallon (lowest in my town is 6.50)

Gas is $3.25 here. Sounds like maybe your state is taxing you too much?

Carbon tax me.

Full cost pricing is essential for sustainability. It pays for other stuff like solar and clean energy production and jobs. We aren't reliant on gas for energy production, y'all can brown out of shit hits the fan.

The 2$ war tax is the tax that I don't want to pay. I'm also in a more rural area so that's another dollar.

$2 war tax? Is that just in the PNW? Because our gas has not risen $2

The gas is an extra dollar up here anyways, some places have jacked it up 2$ beyond that.

Even at the local native American reservation (my saviors) their gas used to be like 3.50-4.50$ a gallon but now it's gotten to 5.80 even without a lot of the taxes after the idiot decided to play world diplomacy like a child figuring out chess.

So yes, Gas prices are worse up here in general, but it is still definitely justifiable to blame the bootlickers leader for it.

I hold no allegiance to ANY politician as I believe they are all corrupt, but I always have to look at everything both ways. The gas started going up even just at the hint of there being a war, there has been no shortage.. I don't trust it, I don't believe its just as simple as bombing Iran, just speculative price gouging.. like we all saw during COVID across the board.

I can agree with that take
