If you drive a car* (and live in the continental US) you may have noticed the ever-dropping prices at the pumps.
If so, well, you’re welcome.
I’m taking credit because every time I fill up my tank, the price drops anywhere from a dime to a quarter. The price per gallon had stayed precariously close to three dollars for a while there, but today I saw it for $1.99 for the first time in a long time.
I of course had already paid $2.09 each for my twelve gallons, but such is life. I’m doing this for all of you, not me, after all.
Any theories that I’m doing this because of the upcoming election are as ridiculous as any theories that the dropping prices are the work of one person, of course.
* By ‘car’ I am of course making the implicit assumption said car is gasoline-fueled. If you happen to have a greasecar or an electric, well, I can’t really speak for fluctuations in the price of fry oil or kilowatts.
