@BCSlots Because he can release from our extra supply that we have plenty of. We should not depend on another country for oil.

@Stefanie71 You understand he is releasing a million barrels a day for the next 6 months right? And when we run out of that, then what? Then we blame him for using up all the emergency stock when we need it for an actual emergency.

@BCSlots Every country does not have high gas prices. Countries that produce their own oil have low prices. Maybe the US should be producing more oil? US citizens pay a relatively high percentage of their income on gasoline so higher prices have a significant impact on the consumer.

@Coozman1 The cheaper places I’d say are the ones who have low wages. We pay higher wages, and so that’s why we import gas - it’s cheaper from elsewhere. So if we just sold our own, it would still cost more.

@BCSlots And yet will pay $5 for a cup of coffee

@BCSlots People dont realise that prices are based on supply and demand. If demand is high and quantity is low.Prices are going to be high.

@BCSlots Maybe you should run for President. You could turn the Whitehouse into a great big smoke free casino!! 🎰

@BCSlots

@BCSlots These people blame Biden for simply drawing breath. If Mitch McConnell introduced a bill and Biden said he likes it, McConnell would be the first one to oppose it.

@BCSlots The PRES does not set the price but policy does affect the price. It was going up before the war but he blames it all on the war. Policies put in place made it much tougher to produce our own (affects the market) , there are other things he could do to lower it. PT1

@BCSlots The pipeline he shut down would have put more oil into the system which would have increased global supply. He cut drilling on federal lands. He stop the ability to drill off the east coast. There are several policy pieces that he signed that did have an affect on the market PT2

@BCSlots Lastly he should have called OPEC and said "Increase production to make up for the Russian oil or I will release that amount from our reserves to make up for it." OPEC has the capacity but they want the price high. WE all know what that funds.

@BCSlots I follow you for slots not politics

@BCSlots I will gladly pay higher gas prices. I will do so without complaint. Gas has never been very cheap in my state, so fuel efficiency has always mattered to me. I understand this is a short-term situation.

@JohnnyPerotti15 If I’m clueless, please educate us on how it’s the presidents fault, even if the whole world has high gas prices too?

@BCSlots Some of your followers seem to only believe in freedom of speech when you're saying what they want to hear. I agree with you, Brian.

@BCSlots You also don’t see other leaders asking their enemies and Murderous regimes for oil instead of releasing some from our supply.
