It varies from place to place, of course. In California we have state-mandated seasonal requirements that mess with prices. But, overall, it's almost $2 less than June 2023.

Because that is the recent high price. I suppose we could go back to 2013, but 2023 was at the peak of the present inflation cycle.Why are you comparing todays price to almost 2 years ago?

wealthy tax rate, not mineThe invasion at our border is stopped. If Schumer doesn't stop it, your tax rate will stay down.
??? not important to my s of lThere are no new wars.
Tariffs = much higher. Gas barely changed.The inflation rate is lower (gas is cheaper).
Hardly affects your S of LYes, Europe should be more self-reliant and, yes, that means more European weapons and maybe, God forbid, they pay for it.
All economists, except on FOX know it's a goof up......................................sure buy stocks,----I think I'll buy a few billionThe article assumes that tariffs will destroy everything American, but what is the author's finance expertise? (Warren Buffet says to buy in a down market.)
Actually near 0 with all the jop cutsHey, a definitive comment! OK, how is the standard of living going downhill? 288,000 people got jobs last month.
"education system" must be definedWhat fools the American education system has produced.
history shows it happens under trumpNo. What I got from the article is a fervent hope that things will go badly for this country, the default left-wing position
If it is in our best interest , and it is, then yes----help them. It included a pitch for people who can't think for themselves to be afraid, as well as a strange implication that the U.S. should forever carry the load of defending Europe.
Because I don't know of anyone named Crooked Donnie.Why don't you compare the price from Jan 20 of this year until now? Jan is when Crooked donnie took office and prices were supposed to come down, remember?
If you pay personal income tax, your tax rate is lower than before the 2017 rate cuts.wealthy tax rate, not mine

This is a perm. cut for the wealthy----very temp. for youIf you pay personal income tax, your tax rate is lower than before the 2017 rate cuts.

We have helped them quite a bit, and would do so again in time of war. But Europe needs to arm itself in preparation for war, should it come. We aren't responsible for their readiness stature during times of peace. We have 65,000 troops in Europe; that's enough.If it is in our best interest , and it is, then yes----help them
Maybe. But a President deserves the respect of his office, and I'm a little fed up with "Hitler," and "Nazi", and "crooked donnie" and the like.poor attempt at a dodge on your part
Disagree-------pro-active against foes, always.....???

I'm afraid you're mistaken. For instance, "The TCJA reduced the top marginal income tax rate from 39.6% to 37% and updated the income tax thresholds across several income tax brackets. In 2026, the top rate is set to revert to 39.6%." And, "Notably, the $10,000 cap on the deduction for state and local income taxes against federal taxes would be lifted, and interest on mortgages up to $1,000,000 would be deductible (up from $750,000 under the TCJA)." https://www.jpmorgan.com/insights/wealth-planning/taxes/tax-cuts-and-jobs-act-tcja#section-header#0This is a perm. cut for the wealthy----very temp. for you
Ummm, "pro-active against foes" sounds like doing things to Europe's foes (mostly Russia). That sounds like a good way to invite hostility.Disagree-------pro-active against foes, always.....
Ah, yes. You're right, but as Everett McKinley Dirksen once said, "A billion here, a billion there, and pretty soon you're talking about real money." Our troops and their weapons should be there to protect our interests and honor any treaties that we have. But they should not be a substitute for European troops and weapons."S of L is standard of living
I felt much the same about Biden, but made a conscious effort NOT to use cheap or degrading nicknames for him. I think such cheap insults are degrading to the country, and they don't enhance the user's apparent IQ.The OFFICE deserves respect, not the person----that must be earned. DJT has not
Simple math (repeated here for the 100th time).....If you lower the tax rate but also increase taxable income, the result is often higher taxes. Try it.If you pay personal income tax, your tax rate is lower than before the 2017 rate cuts.
Do you hold the president to the same standard? He enjoys cheap insults.I felt much the same about Biden, but made a conscious effort NOT to use cheap or degrading nicknames for him. I think such cheap insults are degrading to the country, and they don't enhance the user's apparent IQ.
It has been my delight in life! I've always said that I'd like to pay A LOT of income tax, if it was because I made more income.Simple math (repeated here for the 100th time).....If you lower the tax rate but also increase taxable income, the result is often higher taxes. Try it.
I think he shouldn't use offensive names for his political opponents. He and I don't correspond, so I don't say that to him. But if he ever asks me.....Do you hold the president to the same standard?
If you "made" more income that would be a positive. If you lost deductions you were previously entitled to that would be a negative. Your taxable income would increase with no increase in actual income. MAGA doesn't like to understand this. The result is many Americans are subsidizing your tax cut by paying more income tax.It has been my delight in life! I've always said that I'd like to pay A LOT of income tax, if it was because I made more income.
Dumbasses?
Do you believe that the sound of windmills causes cancer? Do you believe that the Democrats want post-birth abortions? Do you believe that schools arrange transgender surgeries?
The dumbasses in America elected one of their own to be President.
