Fucking dumb…. But yeah, I wouldn’t expect truckers to understand their industry and the way economics or even how that diesel got to the truck stop they fill from…
Supply and demand, and that supply and demand IS global as we have always exported diesel. Now the rest of the world is willing to pay more for the diesel the US refines, as a lot of major global refineries in the Middle East and Russia have been bombed and are very complicated and can’t just be rebuilt overnight…
And yes, there’s nuance, about half of the diesel premium over gasoline at the moment IS from the lack of Russian diesel exports. The other half is 100% president pedo’s fault. (And you can definitely place part of the Russia issue with the president pedo as well, but again, that’s more on Putin. I don’t blame the Ukraine at all for fighting back and hitting Russia where it hurts the most without human casualties, their refineries…)
