This is what I am trying to explain on here. Because of politics, with people just blindly believing whatever their side says, something that is very simple is now confusing. It was never true that the gas price increases during the pandemic were supply driven. From 2020 to 2025 the US has produced more oil every year. At no point did supply decrease. It was used as an excuse which makes no sense considering the US has a surplus. It is market driven in the US. It is why Trump can make it look like the war will end and all of a sudden the price of gas drops however obviously the supply hasn't changed within a day. It's amazing how we can just cap the price of Russian oil. It will blow people's mind when you realize the US can do it to itself.
