It's stupid. Won't do shit for prices. A political stunt. ** -- Seattle .Hoo 11/24/2021 1:08PM
Sadly, cheap gimmicks about gas prices resonate more with voters than -- WahooRQ 11/24/2021 08:53AM
Let’s be honest. Not much he can do. Gas prices are up across the globe. -- HooAskedYou 11/24/2021 07:54AM
But it worked; you're just crying becuz Joey or something. -- ResistHoo 11/24/2021 07:38AM
Not an oil expert and I generally agree that this may be a -- HoosWillWin 11/24/2021 07:34AM
I just assumed this was a coordinated international message to OPEC -- 111Balz 11/24/2021 07:11AM

What would you have him do? -- TomGlansAski 11/24/2021 09:50AM
Well, seemingly nothing would have been better (WSJ link) -- nyhoo 11/24/2021 09:58AM
And if he did nothing, he would continue to receive unrelenting criticism -- TomGlansAski 11/24/2021 10:51AM
Not sure what this has to do with Trump. I am not a supporter of his. As -- nyhoo 11/24/2021 11:13AM
Thank the media that have turned gas prices into the most pressing issue -- WahooMatt05 11/24/2021 05:37AM
Pandering to the LCD of opinion writers, in what is destined to be futile -- southdenverhoo 11/24/2021 10:26AM
I don’t know, but I think that assessment is a bit tone deaf. Many people -- hoolstoptheheels 11/24/2021 08:53AM
If this is a negotiating ploy by the USG versus OPEC -- nyhoo 11/24/2021 09:01AM
You’re right. It’s not the USG. It is the US, China, Japan, India, the UK -- hoolstoptheheels 11/24/2021 09:09AM
Who sticks out of that list? the only country that actually produces oil? -- nyhoo 11/24/2021 09:19AM
I guess it depends on the meaning of “bereft”. Personally I think you -- hoolstoptheheels 11/24/2021 09:37AM
I'll just add here that I agree with NYhoo that the US sucks -- Shenhoo 11/24/2021 09:58AM
I agree it leaves lots to be desired, but that’s a far cry from blaming all -- hoolstoptheheels 11/24/2021 10:31AM
That is major creep from what I said or even implied -- nyhoo 11/24/2021 11:04AM
I agree that the coordinated release of strategic oil reserves - relatively -- hoolstoptheheels 11/24/2021 11:17AM
I personally think oil in the $75-80 range is a sort of sweet -- Shenhoo 11/24/2021 09:53AM
I think your last sentence hits the bullseye. ** -- hoolstoptheheels 11/24/2021 09:55AM

So punish everyone. Gotcha. A temporary fix with use from an -- Lupos 11/24/2021 08:18AM
Do you realize oil production is rising? It's well above where it was when -- Shenhoo 11/24/2021 08:45AM
Compared to......? When? Not seeing that increase at the pump. ** -- Lupos 11/24/2021 08:59AM
Compared to summer of 2020. We have more production than we did -- Shenhoo 11/24/2021 09:08AM
Correct, supply is higher, but demand is much higher ** -- 111Balz 11/24/2021 09:09AM
Lupos really missed the Trump recession that drove demand to nuthin'. -- Shenhoo 11/24/2021 09:14AM
The problem is trying to impact demand by limiting supply -- nyhoo 11/24/2021 07:56AM

That's right. Paying $3.00 a week more to drive to work is way down -- Shenhoo 11/24/2021 09:12AM
Or $78 bbl, right? (Rather than the $85 bbl some 6=7 weeks ago). -- Shenhoo 11/24/2021 08:44AM
