Obamagas to drop below $2 a gallon nationwide

[Katzndogz]

Yesterday when I got gas it was $4.65 gal.

 

[Baruch Menachem]

true that gas is fungible worldwide. However, a greater supply, which we have with fracking lowers prices everywhere. and getting a supply to where the demand is also lowered price, if it ever happened. and a supply here as opposed to supply in Saudi is a good thing, however nasty fracking is

 

[Faun]

Gas is still very cheap where I reside. Thank you Mr. President.

What was Obama's policy that caused gas prices to fall?

For one, it was raising fuel efficiency standards in automobiles. That helped lower consumption, which in turn, helped lower demand.

Lol! What a bunch of bullshit!

I understand; to rightwingnuts, reality is bullshit and bullshit is reality.

Obama Boosts Fuel Economy Standards Despite Detroit's Woes

Walking a tightrope between keeping its environmental pledges and trying to help struggling U.S. automakers, the Obama administration announced today the first increase in fuel economy standards for cars in more than 25 years. But to the dismay of environmentalists, the new standard doesn't go as far as a proposal that the Bush administration offered in 2008 but quickly abandoned.

The move increases fuel economy standards for light vehicles in 2011 to 27.3 miles per gallon, or 8 percent over the 2010-model-year requirement. New cars will have to meet a standard of 30.2 miles per gallon. The standards will save 887 million gallons of fuel and reduce carbon emissions by 8.3 million metric tons, according to the Department of Transportation.​

I filled up my tanks on January 4th 2015 in Hannibal, MO for $1.49/gallon. Gasoline prices are up over 30% since Republicans took over.

World consumption, OPEC have more to do with oil prices. World consumption is up 5%, OPEC had dropped prices. Watch for prices to increase this summer to last year's levels. If you want Obama take credit for the low, then you must give him blame when it goes high this summer.

National gas prices to soon fall below 2

Nationally, regular unleaded gasoline currently averages about $2.12 a gallon, down 46 cents from just four weeks ago and $1.01 cheaper than year-ago levels.
Gas prices are also expected to fall more than previously forecast for the full year

Not bad for a community organizer

I totally agree. Despite the fact the republican congress has prevented our lord and master from implicating his will onto us. We need him to tell us what to do. He must have willed it into existence. Then why didn't he will it into existence 6 years ago? Why did he wait until now? I don't want to disagree with our lord but I think it might have something to do with the fact the oil cartel increasedc production and the fact that oil production has more than doubled in the last 8 years. I know some repubtard will say supply and demand but that has been discredited by every communist system I the world. Silly republicans. Good economics and 5.5% unemployment are for democrats. Isn't 5.5 the lowest unemployment number we ever had. It has to be if Obama is behind it.

Now that's funny, I thought you loons told us not too long ago that Oblahblah had nothing to do with gas prices, despite passing all kinds of anti oil company legislation and not allowing the pipeline to be constructed. Didn't the asshole just veto it yet again a few days ago?

You must be an idiot then because only an idiot would believe that either raising fuel efficiency standards doesn't lower consumption or that lower consumption doesn't lower demand or that lower demand doesn't lower prices.

Which of those do you deny?

It helps us in not relying as much on world oil, however US consumption is down less than 2% in the last 5 years. That hardly influences prices.

The demand worldwide is up 5%, that will not lower costs.

A bigger influence is US production, and through fracking US production is at an all time high.

Again, OPEC and world consumption have more of an impact than fuel mileage. If world consumption is up 5% and US consumption is down 2%, which has more of an impact on world prices?

Thanks for the name calling, it lets me know how juvenile you are.

Obamagas is just one other thing the Republicans will try to overturn. Anything good for Americans is just not good for them.

Um...who has tried to raise gas prices other than Democrats? Take your head out of the kool-aid bowl

Democrats have no power to raise gas prices. Nor do Republicans. Nor do socialists, fascists, communists, anarchists, liberals, conservatives, Whigs, Tories, Greens, Reds, Blues, Purples, Know-Nothings or the entirely apolitical. It's determined in the international trading bazaar.

LOL, clueless as always. When Obama blocks drilling offshore and in Alaska and tries to block fracking those reduce supply and cause prices to go up. The obvious as always is way beyond you. Take an economics course, you'll learn about supply and demand curves in the first class

This thread completely sails over your head huh?

Here again, the major clue:

“Since the president has been president, the cost of gasoline has doubled. Not exactly what he might have hoped for. … He’s said it’s not my fault. By the way, we’ve gone from ‘Yes, we can’ to ‘It’s not my fault.’ Well, this is in fact his fault.” – Mitt Romney (March 2012)
​

Clue #2:

sat·ire
ˈsaˌtī(ə)r/
noun
noun: satire
the use of humor, irony, exaggeration, or ridicule to expose and criticize people's stupidity or vices, particularly in the context of contemporary politics and other topical issues.​

Yes, idiot, I'm a Republican. You mentioned that before. You're not very bright

Obviously I know far more about the oil biz than you do. Might wanna sit this one out. When you're reduced to argumentum ad populum you're running on empty.

"Supply and demand"... sheesh.

As already noted, the whole point of this thread -- satire -- is completely over your head.

Higher gas prices The Republican plan to blame high gas prices on President Obama.

That doesn't answer the question. I asked what Obama's policy was that lead to lower gas prices. Criticizing the Republicans doesn't do that. What policy of his would cause lower prices since you credit him with gas prices? Or do you just admit it's the kool-aid talking?

well this isnt true. Plenty of Republicans would like to raise taxes on gas. Utah is one example.

Regardless Obama has very little to do with as prices.

When Obama blocks exploration and development such as off shore, Alaska, fracking, Keystone, that clearly does affect oil prices. Again, if liberals would just take one economics class and grasp supply and demand curves it would change everything for you

That's like crediting your squirt gun for watering your lawn in a thunderstorm. Any effect Obama had on fuel efficiency has been a tiny drop in the bucket, there is no way it would have been more than a tiny blip on oil prices. If that's your go to example, you just admitted he had no real downward effect on oil prices.

That has also been dwarfed by the negatives I keep mentioning of his blocking exploration off shore and in Alaska and fighting fracking

Again drop in the bucket. Seriously, you think we're pumping a million barrels a day more than we use because of Obama and his contribution to fuel efficinct cars. That's so naive it's adorable. Here's a cookie, run along and play
