The price at the pump fell 33 cents in October, thanks mainly to plunging oil prices, according to AAA.
Many exuberant drivers have taken to social media to post pictures of gas station signs with prices of $2.99 or lower. Drivers in South Carolina and Tennessee are paying the lowest prices, with an average of $2.75 a gallon.
Drivers in New York are paying the most in the continental U.S., at an average of $3.37. That’s still 22 cents cheaper than a year ago.
Gasoline is cheaper than milk again. In September the national average price of milk was $3.73 per gallon.
Just as Obama manipulated the unemployment numbers just before his reelection 2 years ago (they were eventually readjusted)
so are the DemoRats manipulating gas prices just before the midterm elections. This will help the DemoRats hold on to some Congressional seats and possibly a Senate seat or two by fooling Independent voters and some DemoRats into thinking that the economy is improving. It is not!
Need proof of my statement? Look at the futures market and see George Soros (and other left wing communists) manipulate the markets.
baruch hashem
I blame Obama.
I remember the darkest day in American history, when President Bush was stepping down and the scoundrel Barack was being inaugurated. The price of gasoline on that day in early 2009: about $1.70 per gallon.
Two more years. If we are zoiche, the RS”O will forgive us and life will return to normal.
Just paid 249/gallon.
I pay US$0.65/gallon. A fill-up cost about four dollars. This is the only good part about living here.
