Oil & Avg Gas $ June 2008:
•Oil: $181.58/barrel
•Gas: $4.10/gallon
Oil & Avg Gas $ Mar 2022:
•Oil: $99.76/barrel
•Gas: $4.32/gallon
If you're blaming anyone but greedy oil companies for their price gouging—you've bought into propaganda that hurts you more than anyone else.

There is a powerful, important story the public needs to hear about how Big Oil is making windfall profits from high gas prices. Why aren't journalists telling it? Big Oil is charging outrageous prices because they can, not because it's any more expensive to produce. 1/2
People often act like everything that happens in the world is part of some long-thought-out and nefarious intention on the part of some shadowy vague “they”.
How much of life is really just a bunch of dumb mistakes that get built up by people who are only going with the crowd?

Ever notice that?

I spoke to a veteran communications professional who has been trying to place prominent voices supportive of the Afghanistan withdrawal on television and in print.
They told me it has been next to impossible.

Downtown Portland: Far-right extremists groups and anti-fascists battled on the streets off for over an hour.
There were beatings, mace, and improvised firework explosives.
No police response.

Eugene police arrested a man suffering a mental health crisis. As sheriff’s deputies at the Lane County Jail restrained him face down and kneeled on his back, he stopped breathing. His death has been kept secret for over a year. eugeneweekly.com/2021/07/22/…

In tonight’s presidential debate the President said the “Portland Sheriff” supports him. As the Multnomah County Sheriff I have never supported Donald Trump and will never support him.

Clackamas sheriff's deputy telling the militia exactly how to get away with committing murder.
