Evil shit should not be mandated nor subsidized to be in our gasoline. Shit is death for older vehicles and small engines.

E85 should still be available for people who want it (because big power guys love it) but all other gas should be E0.

You would then pay even more for gas...

$10 per gallon really isnt out of the realm of possibility depending on how dumb the left and retard in chief is.

Could you imagine the impact that would have? Electricity production, shipping, air travel, etc. The economy would have rapid hyperinflation.

Did it cause a dramatic spike in energy prices? Check
Does it produce less power then a comparable NG plant? Check
Did in enrich some Chinese company and their US based lobbyists? Check

You'll be able to buy an F-350 with low miles and leather seats for under $10k.


Back when has first hit $4.00, I wanna say around 2008, I bought a 2001 Land Rover Discovery 2, with 85k miles on it it for $4,400 dollars.....  

I bought it off the dealer's lot for that price.

That same truck running today with twice the miles and falling apart would bring more money than I paid, and the one I bought looked and ran new.

The vehicle market could get wrecked with a modest gas price increase. Assume gas climbed to $3-5/gal, which is completely plausible. While vehicle MPGs have increased over the years, most auto makers are (or have) dropping sedans and small cars in favor of SUVs, Crossovers, and Trucks.  Most people are already leveraged with debt and a $100-200+ budget change could not be managed. We do have more people working remote and from home than before, but even with that there would be a major shit and a lot of financial pain.

Subsidies are bad, but so is extreme regulation. They push the latter to sell the need for the former to make the industry reliant on them, thus giving govt more control over private industry. Removing the subsidies without removing the burdensome regulation is just blatantly trying to kill the industry.

Ammo is gone for good as we used to know it. We'll be buying it at neckbeard and up prices closer to a black market like environment. The days of ordering it from your favorite online supplier or traditional retail store are gone for good. It may even get to the point of needing "connections" to buy it. No real shortage though, still as much as you'd like. If you can pay / have the connections, etc. Gasoline I'm predicting about $7.50 a gallon and the economy is tanked anyways, not much to drive to or buy.
