Gary Varvel for July 27, 2022

The only ones keeping the price of fuel high are the oil companies.

Varvel again strikes a blow for dependence on oil.

Another display of his Trump Disciple analysis skills.

USA are so dependent on oil it is sickening (https://www.americanprogress.org/article/oil-dependence-is-a-dangerous-habit/)

Where is Austin Powers?

Again Mr. Varvel forgets (conveniently) that The Great Orange one cut a deal with Saudi Arabia and Russia to RAISE the price of OIL!!

Our Transportation Secretary convincing people to transition to electric cars is evil, Varvel? Really?

Dumb

Nationalize oil? One word: Venezuela

If Gary didn’t promote irrational fear, lies and hate as themes, the poor boy would have no cartoons.

EVs are going to get awfully expensive (as if they’re not already) if China, in retaliation for Nancy’s Taiwan visit, cuts off our access to the metals required to build such cars. How’s that going to affect Joe and Pete’s New Green Deal?

#JustPayneStupid

Another mentally ill right wing cartoon.

By all means – let’s continue to be held hostage to the Middle East, Russia and greedy western oil producers while we continue to ruin our climate with pollution. After all, it won’t affect US all that much in our lifetimes. (Most older Americans could stand to lose a few pounds anyway if food gets even more expensive and scarce.)

Then there’s Gary Varvel as Dr Stupid of pointlessly inapt toons…

Pete Buttigieg, what a dolt!

Oddly enough, a suggestion was made years ago that we might push up the price of gasoline so as to make more people buy EV’s. It was a crazy idea then, but now we have high gas prices and more people are buying EV’s. As gas prices are beginning to drop, though their drop will be slower than their raise, the fear of another gas hike may still act as an incentive for the EV purchase. It’s too bad that EV purchases can’t be because of the EV’s inherent improvement over their ICE counterpart. As range in increased, prices lowered, battery charging time decreased, and charging stations increased, we will less naysayers out there condemning the EV vehicle.

Good one! Dr. Evil. The more regulations and Biden adds new ones almost every week, causes gas to rise. Biden has created more rules than Obama in eight years. How can anyone run a business that way? Atlas Shrugged. \https://news.bloomberglaw.com/environment-and-energy/how-biden-has-made-policy-with-short-term-costly-rules-charts

Meanwhile “Our Government” is sending our fuel over to China. China who threatens Nancy Pelosi, China who is our enemy, China who "gave us " COVID, China who Hunter and Joe’s Brother (and secretly “The Big Guy” Joe Biden) along with other politicians have a crooked money organization.

prices are set by supply and demand. when the gov cuts supply, prices increase. When gov cuts supply again, prices rise again. When gov cuts supply more, gov tells the people to buy electric cars because electricity is sucked out of the air for free.

Once candidate Obama mildly suggested that keeping one’s tires properly inflated would be a good start on improving fuel economy. This automatically provoked peals of scornful laughter about typical libtard fantasies, until the AAA mildly pointed out how many hundreds of thousands barrels of oil are wasted due to underinflated tires in the US.

Great one today! I heard the pig say those exact words.

Dead to rights, factually. Buttigieg actually made this statement.

Then why did Buttigieg say it? Another Democrat lie?

Apparently the alleged commenter Shod doesn’t know about the diesel generator that is in the background producing the electricity for his electric vehicle that’s going to save the world.

And apparently the alleged commenter Shod doesn’t realize that he is suggesting that America go full SOCIALISM by nationalizing oil companies.

Mayor Petey wants $$$$$ to fix those “racist” highways, or are they also ’homophobic" ?

I firmly believe you are a brainwashed moron Mr. Varvel.

Dr. Obvious is right as usual, except that no one is making us buy electric cars, it’s just common sense.

That’s actually true, historically. The Arab Oil Embargo taught us that lesson.

If everyone were able to switch to electric cars tomorrow, that would be great…. Unfortunately, the electrical grid is nowhere near able to handle the increased load.
