Proof that gas prices have been manipulated to help GOP in the midterms |
Crude oil has fallen $20 a barrel the last few months. Since other
costs have stayed constant and there are 55 gallons to a barrel that
means gas should have dropped around 40 cents. But it's dropped a
dollar. The oil companies didn't do that to help us, they did it to
help the GOP, the Grand Oil Party.

Will they similarly "manipulate" all other unavoidable expenses
facing the middle class to get the Republicans through the midterms as
well please? Dammit, until they similarly "manipulate" downward such
other soaring unavoidable burdens on us as local property taxes that
politicians themselves do control, the line that they are getting Big
Oil to cut pump prices to get Republicans out of a jam isn't credible.

The answer is actually pretty simple. There's always a period in the
fall when gas prices go down. Summer demand is down, yet production is
still up, home heating oil production has yet to spin up so there's a
surplus of gasoline. Once home heating oil demand goes up, gas prices
will follow.

One barrel of crude oil makes about 19½ gallons of gasoline, 9 gallons of
fuel oil, 4 gallons of jet fuel, and 11 gallons of other products, including
lubricants, kerosene, asphalt, and petrochemical feedstocks to make
plastics. More, plus a graphic. The ultimate cost of a gallon of gas at the
service station depends mostly on the price of crude oil, and most of the
profit after expenses goes to the owner-producers of the oil, whether they
are governments or oil producing companies. The following table shows an
approximate breakdown of the costs that go into a gallon of gas in the US.
Almost everywhere in the world outside the US, people pay MUCH more for
gasoline, largely because of much larger government taxes, which amount to
around $3 to $4 per gallon in many European countries (and which support
government-subsidized health care and other programs). Graphic comparison.
Naturally, all the values in the table below vary from place to place; these
are general estimates. "Producer" generally means the country that owns the
oil - companies like Exxon and Shell and Conoco must purchase much of the
oil they refine and market, more or less at the going price of crude on the
world market. Long-term contracts may reduce their cost by a bit, but when
the price of oil is $60, Exxon is probably buying such oil from Saudi Arabia
for something like $58 or more.

fwiw - 60% of the price of a gallon of gas is in the crude cost (API) , and
I believe a petroleum barrel is 42 gallons.
so that means a $20 drop for 42 gallons at 60% of the price is
down 29 cents a gallon.

You fucking retard , ther are 42 gallons of oil to a barrel of oil and
after refining costs and removal of other oil products from each barrel
there is only 19 gallons of gas.
No wonder you inbred stupid liberals cant figure out how to poke holes in

Hahahahahahaha! It's the ultimate PKB!!!
You got the number for barrels of brent crude. I'm using the
figure for light sweet like most people do. THINK
From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barrel:
"The standard barrel of crude oil or other petroleum product
(abbreviated bbl) is 42 US gallons...
Oil has not been shipped in barrels for a very long time since the
introduction of oil tanker ships, but the 42-US-gallon size is still
used as a unit for measurement..."
Now let's look at http://www.nymex.com/CL_spec.aspx. Hmmm, let's look
at that trading unit, 1,000 U.S. barrels (42,000 gallons). Since you've
proven yourself incredibly stupid I doubt you can do the simple division
required to figure out what how many gallons are in a barrel so I'll do
it for you - 42000/1000 equals 42 but I'm betting you'll dispute even
that, or better yet claim that the New York Mercantile doesn't know what
it's talking about. Heheheheheh.
Thanks for playing.

More like proof that Judy Diarrhea is as psycho as ever.
Crude oil has fallen $20 a barrel the last few months.
Since other costs have stayed constant...
And we can stop right there. Since you've ignored all data and
discussion on this subject to date, I have no intention of

Doh, why not? It's called politics. Are you so stupid you think the
DemocRATs wouldn't do the same if they had the chance?

I predicted this three months ago. Oil has hit $60 dollar a barrel but
the prices are still down.

Well that explains it, case closed! We can all go home now I guess.
Wait, let me offer something that makes a little more sense:
Barrel of oil then: $78.40 (all time high)
Barrel of oil now: $58.78
Percent dropped: 25%
Average gas price then: $2.91
Average gas price now: $2.13
Percent dropped: 27%
Nice try though, I applaud your efforts, no matter how juvenile they
might be.

crude oil is 60% of the cost of a gallon of gasoline

not in refuting an arguement that says "when crude drops 25% and gasoline
drops 25%, all is as it should be."
$1.86 of a $3.00 gallon of gas comes from the $78 a barrel cost of crude
oil.
If oil were free, a gallon of gas would still cost $ 1.14.
When crude goes from $78 to $55, gasoline should go from $3.00 to
$2.45, all other things being equal.
Here, it has gone from $2.99 to $2.15 even before crude hit $55.
---------
non-crude cost plus crude cost = gasoline cost
$1.14 + $55/42 = $2.45
or
$1.14 + (55/78 x $1.86) = $2.45

WOW!! You are really stupid. You can't equate the cost of something
with the cost of the raw materials in it. Gasoline is not the same as
the oil that comes our of the ground. There's also the refining costs
and the shipping and of course the taxes. All those costs have stayed
constant. My analysis is the correct one as i'm sure is obvious to
everyone but you. THINK

Uh, yeah I can, that's basic economics. If the price of cotton goes
up, cotton t-shirts will also go up as well. Same with lumber after a
hurricane. Find me one product where the price of the materials of a
widget is $10, but they sell the widget for $5.

You've missed the point on this. If all things being equal (refining,
shipping), if the cost of a unit of raw material goes down 10%, you
expect to see the finished product drop correspondingly. With gasoline
we have seen that. A barrel of oil, you know, what they make gas out
of, has dropped 25%.
Has shipping, refining and all other costs also dropped 25%? No, they
haven't? Well, let's see the rest of your explanation....
Gas prices have dropped 27%. We're all good.
Uh, no, we aren't. You are missing a *VERY* large portion of the
costs, which haven't dropped at all, yet Gas has dropped 2% MORE then
the price of a barrel of oil, all without any drop in the other costs
to produce a gallon of gas...Care to explain the "discrepency"?
Another idiot poster said that the avg price per gallon was actually
over $3 a gallon, and that my figure was wrong. Okay, so be it, backs
up my point even further.

Wong again. The average price of gas topped out at well over
$3/gallon.
If you don't think the Bush admin has enough connections in the oil
industry
to manipulate the price of a gallon of gas then you are far more naive
(or
more likely just a way bigger liar) than the most bleeding-heart
liberal.
Hell, I just heard 'W' bragging about how the price of gas is down as
a sign his politics are working. In this case he DOES deserve the
credit.
