What makes you think oil would cost $15,000/barrel ?Absolutely, a gas price could be set at $3/gallon, and you're an idiot for thinking it couldnt.
I asked before, how much gas would be refined with $15,000 a barrel oil with a $3 fixed price?
Go ahead and jack your gas price up, when the govt says you cant.
Are they going to force me to refine $15,000 oil?
LOL. You're against gas price control, like I am Winston Churchill.
Winston was much, much smarter than you. You're more like AOC.
What amount of gas would be refined is the same amount that is refined now, while gas prices ARE about $3/gallon, the price of a barrel of oil would be the same as now.
Wrong. For gas to ever be priced at $500, oil would have to be at least $15,000.
You don't understand anything about economics.
Did the college fire you? Is that why you're poor?
I didn't see any response to the scenario I mentioned about costs being passed on to consumers.
How much gas would be refined with $70 oil, if the government said gas had to be 3 cents a gallon?
FALSE! Gas price at the pump is not rigidly connected to the price of oil. The price of oil could be dirt cheap, and if the gas station owners saw fit, (and were as lowlife as landlords) they could just price gouge us, and charge whatever they want (as long as they cartel themselves and all of them are doing that)
The only thing that could stop them is the government. Back to the 4th grade for you.
