What, regulations work?
No way!
Exactly the regs Cheeto promises the oil companies he will get rid of if they raise $1B for his reelection
Waiting for DeSantis to overturn and rescind the Federal regulations in 3…2…
He can’t — preemption means federal rules override state ones.

You were right without the /s. Descrutum will try anyway if it will put his shitty state in the news. Even if it’s just another frivolous lawsuit.
I’m sure the Republicans will do something to stop this, and blame the Democrats
Blame everyone. My brother-in-law works for a refinery. They get beat up in the news and by politicians all the time, but when they need something it always happens - even in California. Which shouldn’t surprise - people say they want things like clean air until they discover it means gas prices go up (or they can’t drive their car at all) and suddenly they don’t care are all.
Oh yes, it’s the minimum wage worker who is at fault because they need gas to drive the only available means of conveyance. Surely if they just walked the twenty miles to work, we’d breathe easier.
Why are you blaming the minimum wage worker? It is everybody with a car which is the vast majority of the adult population. Poor, middle class, rich - all of them care about gas prices and scream when they go up.
Sarcasm is meant to drive introspection. My point was that, in your wide reaching claim of “blame everyone”, YOU include the minimum wage worker with no options. In fact, I’d argue that most Americans have no reasonable option to cars. I’d also argue that this is by design and mostly influenced by oil producing companies and the politicians they have bought.
But if you think that we can solve this crisis by blaming people with no options, then please help me understand how that works.
