Some, usually the self centered and short sighted America Firsters, complain about the high gas prices we pay here, apparently ignorant of the energy crisis hitting other parts of the globe with far greater severity. In Europe, for example, where fuel prices have always been much more expensive, the soaring cost of diesel, the primary fuel for transport and agriculture, is catastrophic. Many developing nations are suffering even more as high diesel prices affect supply chains leading to food insecurity and economic instability. While we complain about gas prices, poor countries are losing their livelihoods . Trump has precipitated this disaster with his Iran "excursion" and enraged and infuriated people all over the world. As if we weren't already fast losing friends and prestige because of this corrupt, incompetent and grifting administration.
