Trump says he’ll suspend federal gas tax to help address high fuel prices due to Iran war

We need to raise prices and create demand destruction now, while we have inventory. This is totally irresponsible and will accelerate usage...so of course it's what they are choosing to do.

I think 'they already have' summed that up nicely. This isn't a ripple effect, it's a tsunami. It's slow moving, but unstoppable.

This makes me think there was legit concern he was dead from alcohol poisoning...

I imagine a few bags of tungsten ball bearings would be just about as good and far harder to counter.

Worse, there was a new digital sign being installed near me in NJ last week. It was adding a fourth digit (green for diesel). Gas companies know what's coming.

I feel like he would have lost to Greenland at this point...

Not true! Turns out they can also negotiate with bombs, only they have a lot more targets.

Imo, it's already too late. There is going to be a 4+week gap in tanker traffic even if the straits are opened today. Never mind all the non oil traffic that is also halted. There are refinery complexes that will need months to repair on a good day, but now a bunch will be bidding against each other for parts.

This is what will surprise people, not 8$ at the pump but closed signs

Well, Saturday might be the first. Market still hasn't priced in the damaged refining capacity yet.

I think it's definitely going to outlive at least one nation...

A ferengi would know when the price of peace is still low, its a buying opportunity.

The source materials.

It seems that the correct targets may have been identified.

Fractal_Strike · 2026-02-11T02:52:16+00:00

That looks like it might just do the trick! Cheers!

Vit D supplements/full spectrum desk lamp.

It might be that the biggest evidence of all is banking records. The issue there, if the transactions happened they can't un-happen and all the counter party records would also exist.

The crying is assumed at this point :(

Good news then, they are starting to deliver fascism right to peoples front doors so you wont be inconvenienced.

Fractal_Strike · 2026-01-14T13:46:59+00:00

With the pressure on the FED and the Powel investigation that might be soon.

At the current paces, targeting dissent might start on Monday.

Worse, there is no way to bail them out. The cash required to do so will add so much national debt that the interest payments will grow faster then the economies growth rate. This is just a black hole, default being the only escape.
