{"replyTo":"","text":"The administration has almost nothing to do with fuel prices, Einstein. Any policy changes they make take years to take affect. The current administration actually called some CEIs onto Capitol Hill for a hearing to find out why prices were going up, although demand was lower than in decades due to Covid. The CEO of Pilot, who controls over 30% of oil in the US, explained that the railroads were limiting the number of tankers they would haul. Didn't make sense, but on my last job before trucking, we couldn't get the RR to bring us enough empty cars. Our rail shipping costs dipped from $86M one year to mid-50s the next year. We never found out why. But as for oil/fuel, the administration found out that the RR companies hedged their bets by buying heavy stock in electric vehicle companies. They doubled down by limiting the number of tanker cars they would allow in transit while charging more per rail car. Then, the rising prices increased the demand for EVs, driving their stock prices up. The RR made money all the way around, and then the dumbest portion of the USA bought \"I did that\" stickers because they believe unverified social media memes.\nWelcome to America in 2023.","replyToPid":0} |
