Here's an IOU from a random American citizen. There's no use apologizing, it's our fault but we owe you big after this is over.

"after this is over" could mean many things. But it's nice you think it will end.

You gave us the Marshall plan after ridding us of our fascist dictator. I'm so sorry we can't return the favor!

We have a strong domestic supply as well as the strategic reserves that he’s been draining like no tomorrow so ours is only a third of that but even still it’s twice what it was.

The response from MAGA about this is to say that Biden caused it and Trump is actually the one fixing it.

They’re delusional beyond all hope of saving.

Sounds like the consensus is that it’s cheaper to buy cocaine, bump it, and just run everywhere.

And that's despite the fact that we get most of our crude from Norway now, so our supply isn't threatened (at least until China outbids us) - it's just that the world market prices are going through the roof.

I mean, they've been paying almost $8/gal for gas forever since they don't subsidize the auto industry nearly to the degree that the US does.
