World & BusinessRefining and political blame in the debate over gas prices
One post argues that refining limits can keep pump prices high despite falling oil prices. Other comments fault energy policy or urge people to acknowledge the costs regardless of who's president.
TLDR
September 23 posts offer competing explanations for expensive gas: one argues that refining must keep pace with demand and inventory needs for cheaper oil to translate into lower pump prices; another criticizes policies involving Keystone XL, gas-powered vehicles and fracking, accusing mainstream media of defending them. Alongside that dispute, a separate post says gas has been expensive under Bush, Obama, Biden and Trump, and argues that downplaying prices disregards people's financial strain.
