Pretty sad state of affairs if people are somehow thinking that gas, being lower because people are traveling less, or being forced to use their higher mpg car instead of their preferred vehicle, is some how an improvement. Crushing an economy and then looking at gas as some good signal for the return to normal is foolish, but some make that claim.
Small business, main street, lower and middle classes continue to get crushed and are facing hard decisions as to which pain point to address first. Reality. Quality food prices up an insane %, people about to get smacked with horrendous heating costs this fall and winter, 40%+ of small businesses having problems making rent payments. Energy is lifeblood, and the White House occupier focused his attention on crushing it for the American people and American way of life.
