    same that with covid, invasion of Ukraine etc. Just a way for companies to rise up prices and make more profit

    Prices down in America aren’t actually lower cus of the war, but the gas companies are going abroad to sell their gas cus it’s more pricey there. Then there’s less gas here so the supply is reduced and the cost naturally goes up

    pathological greed from oil company execs who already get basically all of their costs of business subsidized by the american taxpayer anyways . no amount of money will ever be enough for them
