While China is increasing its energy diversity for manufacturing and Ai the demos in the west are commiting economic suicide are limiting energy resources resulting in shortages and the need to import it.
Truckers in California facing higher prices with cost of diesel fuel
California truck drivers are facing critical financial pressure as diesel prices surge,
recently surpassing an average of $7 per gallon in some areas and over $6.75 in others. Driven by global supply disruptions from the war in Iran and regional refining constraints, these record prices are forcing owner-operators to cut costs, with potential for increased consumer prices on goods.
Key Details on the California Diesel Crisis:
- Price Shock: Diesel prices have surged by more than $1.50 in four weeks in some parts of California, with average costs rising over 30%.
- Driver Impact: Owner-operators are forced to take only higher-paying loads and cut back on expenses to break even. Some report paying up to $600-$700 to fill up their tanks, according to YouTube video from NBC 7 San Diego.
- Economic Impact: The high fuel costs, coupled with potential supply chain disruptions from a separate issue regarding driver license shortages, are expected to raise the cost of transporting consumer goods.
- Long-Term Outlook: Experts fear that without a resolution to global conflicts and local supply constraints, prices could continue to rise, potentially reaching $8 a gallon in some areas.

That’s good, from a state thats full of them, they’re a disaster.
goldi, not to worry
the flip of the (state) representative seat for the mar a lago district will have little or no practical effect on the florida legislature. the state house of reps has an 84 – 33 republican supermajority. the flip of one seat, though regrettable, is insignificant. the florida house of reps will, for the foreseeable future, remain solid red. likewise, the state senate and the governor’s office.

Good for Vance … if true
AF Post
@AFpost
Iran has said it will not negotiate with Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, deeming them, as the UK did, as “foreign agents serving Israel”, instead demanding to negotiate with JD Vance.
The VP, who has positioned himself as against the Iran War but supportive of the President, now has the chance to negotiate an end to the Iran War.
The move would undoubtedly be good PR for Vance, who has been the subject of attacks from across the GOP, painting him as both too hawkish and too dovish. Through the negotiations, Vance gets a chance to cement himself as the “pro-peace” successor to President Trump, standing apart from the hawkish Rubio and Hegseth.

Btw doing some DD on inheritance besides giving any phyzz away when alive make sure it’s under what’s taxable a year is best if you leave any behind as a step up inheritance meaning the value say a house or phyzz is inherited at present value not past that they get them both appraised immediately. In case they don’t sell it right away they have it in writing because the I RS without out proof can them claim what it was when purchased or what ever they want. So let them know that.
Mr Copper
I added more shares of HL after selling some when it looked to reverse awhile ago , yesterday and Cde before the news thank goodness. My focus is more on the phyzz. Paper can only be redeemed in paper. I waited till I got my whole 20 shares in place of dollars in divis in another one before I was going to add more but then that news broke out so decided to wait.

Yeah I included that but antibiotics were and still are important. Even with sanitation as in clean water, food, including waste management et all a simple cut could kill them. That’s why they still make a big deal out of it in some places but a bigger deal then. But even today how many people in the US living today needed antibiotics somewhere in their lifetime despite sanitation, or would be alive today if they didn’t have it.
@goldielocks re Hecla
Roger that, I have 7950 shares of HL, it gets popular with rising Silver prices, so does CDE AG and even ASM and others. However my most profitable stock is AGI Alamos gold. It started climbing before all the others. However my non Gold stock, Smith & Wesson, SWBI, finally broke out lately.
Goldie
It wasn’t the antibiotics.
And it certainly wasn’t so-called immunizations or vaccinations.
It was improved sanitation and cleanliness. And nutrition.
Even today a healthy immune system is more important than antibiotics. But it has been impacted/destroyed by vaccinations, chemicals in our environment and farming, and food bred for shelf-life not nutrition and over-processed.
Vaccinations, and our ENTIRE medical ‘industry’, will be looked back on in the future like we look back at ‘medical’ practices in the 1800s. With mockery and disbelief.
End of discussion for me.

I guess figuring out how to do that it find out what’s causing them to do that to other oil companied in the first place abd go from there.
The rest, this war is giving them no choice. Either that or starve.

There was a post on X that said 23 countries are signing up to ensure safe passage in the strait of Hormuz. That should help. What has to stop are Iran’s an attacks on the other countries oil facilities. Not sure how they do that.
To me the biggest risk is the petrodollar. Japan and S. Korea doing transactions for oil in Yuan. Not good.

The theory is the narrative, the excuse. If they cared about saving the children vs follow the money, they’d make them safe but their not. The theory could partially work if they were safe.
Just like this COVID vaxx. It was made by using the cold virus. Perfect they probably though. Why, because the virus ALWAYS morphs. What does that mean? It means they need to keep making more of them. During the initial outbreak they were having other manufactures to make them too and God knows what we’re in those. None of it was safe. They got their emergency okay so didn’t have to prove it was safe or be accountable. That’s why there was a war on Ivermectin and other treatments that were effective because it would take their emergency rights away if they had something safe that worked. It could only be used when there was no other alternative. Then the irony it didn’t even work. They already knew that even if it did work which it didn’t so wasn’t meant to work because the cold virus always morphs. Then they can hide the fact it doesn’t work saying it’s because it morphed.
For once If like to see them call out their threats they won’t make any more if their held accountable and tell them okay don’t until they are.

I was talking about “the theory.”
Beyond that I believe what you’re saying is true.

People who don’t question or do their homework it’s easy to believe a narrative instead of the truth. Just like this war going on. Especially when it comes from authority figures. Now that I said it see what happens.
People are made to believe it was vaccines that saved all these children today. Most European children already had inherited antibodies to childhood diseases. The bigger threat was the ones who were never exposed in the first place like the American Indians
The fact is it wasn’t the vaccines that saved the children, it was the recognition of bacteria and continued progress in modern medicine, food preservation and clean water. Places like third world and off grid still have these threats especially if they’re not aware of them.
… Before antibiotics, the biggest threats to children were infectious diseases like pneumonia, diarrhea, diphtheria, and tuberculosis, with infectious illnesses causing nearly 40% of all deaths in children under 5 in 1900. Bacterial infections often resulted in death, and simple, common infections were frequently fatal because no effective treatments existed.
