Jeff Bezos is right. Either Joe Brandon is lying or he is a fucking retard

There are record profits for oil companies right now, they are producing record numbers, their costs to produce a barrel of oil and transport it are HIGH because of inflation, it's summer so the demand is HIGH. This means PRICE GOES UP

Which means GASOLINE WHOLESELLERS have to charge more to GAS STATIONS which means the PRICE AT PUMP goes UP

Joe Brandon's solution to this is "just lower the price at the pump lol" Has he never heard of a margin? You pay $1 for something and sell it for $2, you make a dollar. If the price you pay goes up to $2 you can't LOWER THE PRICE or you will lose money. What the fuck is he smoking??

meanwhile in Canada.....

The government is LOWERING TAXES for GASOLINE which means SELLERS AND BUYERS can buy and sell it for less and lower the price at the pump. LOLOLOLOLOL AMERICANS 😂 you can't make this shit up. Retard joe brandon americans JUST LOWER THE PRICE AT THE PUMP! hurr durrr

A cut to the provincial gas tax promised by Premier Doug Ford before the June election takes effect on Friday and experts say it may offer some relief to drivers facing sky-high pump prices, but the long-term benefits to consumers are unpredictable.

The government passed legislation this spring to lower the gas tax by 5.7 cents per litre and the fuel tax, which covers diesel, by 5.3 cents per litre for six months.
