Yes. And, what exactly happened to the buffaloes? This picture from circa 1870 shows some well-intentioned buffalo hunters on a mound of buffalo skulls.

Despite falling crude oil prices, what we pay at the pump can also be manipulated by controlling refinery output and supply of gasoline to distributers.
Conversely, a refinery needs to command at least a minimum price point to stay in operation.
Classic supply demand to price balance.

Markets (demand) for U.S. exported LNG may be shrinking at a the same time capacity (supply) is expanding.
“Drill baby drill” may not be as lucrative for those billion dollar oil and gas donors as they thought. Another hollow promise?

This shedding of federal and corporate jobs is alarming.
Watching for, what will probably be hard to find, an updated U.S. Unemployment and Jobs Report.
The egg price comparison is losing its relevance, because eggs are becoming a scarce commodity.

Those seniors not stuck in the GOP media bubble are well aware of Musk’s threat to SS and Medicare. Those inside the bubble will probably have to feel the sting first. It is an issue which is worth “going to the mattresses.”

Extreme wealth gap-check. Oligarchy controls government-check.
Impoverished majority has no voice in governance-check.
Add a breach of trust with the present government and; yes, a class war seems likely.

One of the roots of this cult dates back to the days of the American Civil War Reconstruction. It led to the rise of the KKK and Jim Crow laws. This is who they are. They have minorities to look down on, white supremacy for the masses, and rich white dudes in the mansion running the whole show.

He is unmoderated. tRump told you himself, “You won’t have to vote any more.” Adherence to ANY pledge is entirely transactional. Public service, opinion, and humanity be damned. There should be no more surprises in his lack of character, ethics, or moral code. It’s DEFCON 1 for democracy.
