• Pat Flood (@rebarcock) passed away 9/21/25. Pat played a huge role in encouraging the devolopmemt of this site and donated the very first dollar to get it started. Check the thread at the top of the board for the obituary and please feel free to pay your respects there. I am going to get all the content from that thread over to his family so they can see how many people really cared for Pat outside of what they ever knew. Pat loved to tell stories and always wanted everyone else to tell stories. I think a great way we can honor Pat is to tell a story in his thread (also pinned at the top of the board).

JP Morgan gas/food price prediction


Huh?, I just noticed.

Is diesel usually more expensive that petty is the states?

Reason I'm asking is coz diesel has always been way, way cheaper than petty here in NZ.

(Not entirely sure, but I'm thinking it's because owners of diesel vehicles here have to pay mileage tax.)

#It's also very common, and simple, to disconnect the speedo so the mileage doesn't accumulate and thus completely negates the mileage tax.

#Fuckin aye, I've done this.😆 Government can kiss my ass!

Yes, as long as I can remember diesel bas been more than regular gasoline in the U.S.
 
I think this is part of the play to attempt to dampen voter turnout in Nov. I don't think it'll be just one thing like last time. It'll be multiple.

Gas prices
Covid or some other BS
Violence
High gas prices=mail in ballots
Monkey pox/covid=mail in ballots
Fear of white supremacy=mail in ballots

And we all know what "mail in ballots" means
