re: #176 No Malarkey!

President Biden’s approval is at its highest point in two months. I think that for those Americans swinging back and forth, it really is just about the price of gasoline. The balance of our democracy may rest on a few cents per gallon difference at the pump, which is insane when you think of it. projects.fivethirtyeight.com

It is a bigger percentage of the budget for people who live in rural areas and have to drive long distances to get anywhere, but then again, Biden is not popular in most of those areas to begin with.

Right now, Germans are paying around €1.60 per liter, so lessee, at current exchange rate of €1 = $1.12
= $1.79 per liter times 3.785 liters per gallon = $ 6.78 per gallon.

America would go to war before it would pay that much…
