funny thing is... China doesn't care. Second largest producer of wheat after the USA is Russia. China is just buying it from Russia. Our politicians pushed China's money out of the USA, for the betterment of consumers (of course), and pushed it right to Russia. All because the big 3 lobbied the government, again, for the betterment of the consumer.

In Kalifornia, they raise the price of gas because of the ‘Summer Blend’ which, ironically drops gas mileage.
Keep up the great commentary Scotty!

I'm a farmer but i don't grow wheat just corn and soybeans. typically grain prices follow oil prices.
Those teardrop trailers are selling for a totally different reason now! I've met more than a dozen people in the past 2 years buying those things for the purpose of full time living since the cost of housing is no longer affordable in many areas and the payments are much cheaper than rent where I live.

Gas prices raising instead of falling doesn't seem like a failure of capitalism. Seems like when you make laws that say "You can't charge x amount lower than other gas stations", is what keeps prices high.

Gas prices will always go up unfortunately, I remember when I was young gas being $1.25 per gallon. It's a nonrenewable resource, and your right they will charge whatever they want just because they can. Gas has been hovering around $3.30 to $3.70 a gallon here for now. Once it gets to $5 per gallon I doubt we will see as many trucks and SUVs on the road if people be smart.

If they don’t raise gas prices, they could run low on supplies. In theory. But people will take spring and summer vacations and the price of gas won’t stop them. (And they’ll still burn 50 cents worth of gas to drive across town and save 40 cents on a tankful).

Today, most Canadians awoke to a 12 cent a litre (54 cent a metric gallon) increase in the price of gas. Seems it costs refiners more to produce summer gas than it does winter gas. 😢

Scott the Electric Ferry doesn't use the same type of dangerous batteries they replicate Train engines with the onboard chemical battery and diesel engine to charge it up.

I see gas stations raising their prices, on gas that has not arrived yet . They are charging higher prices for the gas they paid less for . So gas stations are doing the same thing as the oil companies .
The gas is slightly different cause of a pipeline in canada being closed which effected the price of oil

Hello Scotty
In North York a new hosing development is going in houses start at $400,000.00, I would like to know where the people work that can afford that price.
This is why trade wars are stupid. Everyone loses. They will charge just enough for gasoline so you wont stop driving because of the price. When the demand goes up so does the price. This is why electric cars are such a good idea, the substitute for gasoline will flatten the demand curve and lower the price for gasoline.
