Here’s an article I found that examines the data, and it doesn’t seem that actually happens. Gas prices generally go down in the winter, elections are in the winter, I don’t think there’s too much more to it.
The price of jerky is ridiculous tbh sir.
Beef is becoming a luxury these days.
It goes down this same time every year and up at the same time. You have to look at years compared at the same times
Im gonna start making jerky out of the crickets in my yard sir lol.
I tend to think that people who claim that presidents are a significant factor (or the only factor, or a main one, or whatever) in gas prices are bullshitting because they're never consistent about it (when it's up, it's because the president they don't like, but then they never say it's down because of the president they don't like, and vice versa). But I wonder if there are just people who have really short attention spans and don't question political propaganda that much and legitimately believe it.
Man was my commute easy then. No one on the roads, gas was half price. memories...
I for one miss the Covid lockdowns
They got down to 81 cents a gallon in my area during the Clinton years though. I remember it well. I was a teenager delivering pizzas as my job. I got my wage, plus tips, plus 50 cents per pizza I delivered to cover gas. Sometimes I’d have 5-6 orders just going to the apartment complex across the street on a Friday.
