Everything bad happening in the world now is Vladimir Putin's fault. If the gas doubles in price over a month period, it was Putin, if major diseases will be spread out of Ukraine due to migration and some "chemical labs", apparently owned by the US, is also Putin's fault...
There's definitely no doubt now that Putin, through his stubbornness is generating a lot of pain, mostly among the poor Ukrainians, but also among many other around the world who are forced to pay more for gas/diesel and all sort of goods.
From what I read on twitter today, though, it seems that Africa is going to be severely impacted by the stall of wheat exports coming from Russia and Ukraine. It's like Africa didn't had enough problems to deal with...
Italian Truckers Declare Force Majeure Over Gas Pains, Halt Deliveries Starting Monday
Do you know what that means? Not only that there will be shortages for common goods, due to the fact that 85% of the supply process of supermarkets is done through road transportation, but scarcity will ignite speculation and everything will cost more than it did.
It feels that there's some force pushing humanity into poverty and desperately tryin to destroy the middle class, or I'm just becoming paranoic.
"The suspension of services has become inevitable - underlines a letter sent by Trasportiunito to the Prime Minister, the Minister and Deputy Minister of Sustainable Infrastructures and Mobility and the President of the Guarantee Commission in Strikes - also to protect companies and prevent that the exasperated market conditions, determined by the record rise in fuel prices, translate into advantages for other subjects in the transport sector, or into charges for contractual obligations that the companies in the logistics chain are no longer able to guarantee ".
"The road transport block will have direct effects on the community, suspending the supplies of goods in the commercial sector and leading to a surge in retail price lists in shops and supermarkets - says the president Carlo Rienzi - An inevitable consequence, considering that the 85% of goods sold in Italy travel by road, and a further damage for consumers, exhausted like companies by expensive fuel".
"In this situation, a shameful immobility arrives from the Government, and it is not clear what awaits the executive to immediately cancel the VAT on petrol and diesel and reduce excise duties.

Now, when Joe Biden was asked a few days ago about gas increasing prices he said that Russia is to be blamed, although economists claim the economical situation of the US was shaky even before the war started. Meanwhile Kamala Harris is on a brain washing campaign in Europe...
They blame the "spicy gas" that we have now on the war ignited by Putin, BUT "Germany and other EU member states have bought 10 billion euros worth of gas and oil from Russia in the last 12 days.
What do you call that?
HIPOCRACY. That's what it is... because if I remember correctly, they're buying oil from Russia at the same prices the did prewar, however, gas stations are selling it at prices constantly fluctuating in tandem with crude oil price on the open market and that doesn't make any sense to me.
It also doesn't make any sense to pump the price of gas at "the pump" in day one after the war, as if the gas station would have bought the oil from which the petroleum products they're selling have been produced, was bought that precise day. It also makes no sense not to reduce VAT on gas and diesel and keep the economy flowing.
The biggest hypocrisy that I find is that these fake puppets of politicians are acting as if they care about Ukraine, through their imposed sanctions towards Russia, while they really don't ACTUALLY care at all. Otherwise they wouldn't still be buying the damn oil... and selling it at the prices we see. It's just a show.
But, who's paying for this dirty show? Millions of Ukrainians and the average consumer almost everywhere in the world.
Thanks for attention,
