When you have mastered numbers, you will in fact no longer be reading numbers, any more than you read words when reading books. You will be reading meanings.

I can't recall blaming GWB in the 2000s when it was close to $4/gallon.

lolwut? You think TEXANS didn't have buddies who owned oil companies? >_> (Especially considering they were in the oil business themselves at times...) And, in general, *most* politicians have friends in those kinds of businesses. Trump isn't any more likely to have oil industry friends than other people.

You're aware that the US government doesn't set those prices, right? >_> And despite all the claims that Iraq was for the oil, the fact that we disrupted the country did more to impede oil production than anything we might have stood to gain.

Doesn't matter either way. All of our presidents have seen highs and lows. Obama saw record-highs and lows that fell outside of what should have been expected, due to inflation. Same with both Bush's and Clinton. We just saw a spike under Trump and now prices are dropping. Some praise Obama for his lows, some hate him for his highs. Same with Bush. Trump, if anything, will be known for his gas prices being meh, in a society where any price is considered too high.

Anyone else find it funny how people on here cite British news sources regarding American news?
