It's a great reason until there's an alternative. As long as voters look to gas prices for their votes, taking action that raises them is politically toxic.

Meanwhile leftists are literally criticizing the Biden administration for high gas prices' impact on the working class.

You want to change it? Let's change it. Starting with activists.

Unfortunately we proved just before the midterms that there's a very linear inverse correlation between gas prices and perceived job performance. Refilling the strategic petroleum reserve is electorally smart. Until activists can detach these electoral relaities nothing will change for anyone.

A master's in journalism who's involved in broadcasting. What qualifies her to be president of the board? My guess is millions in mommy and daddy's money.

Except that's still a SQL dialect, not JSX. There's no need to make this JSX.

According to a study by economists David Autor, Arindrajit Dube, and Annie McGrew, so many workers—predominantly young, with no more than high school educations, working overwhelmingly in low-wage service-sector jobs—quit those jobs in 2021 and 2022 for better-paying ones that this collective job switch actually reduced such indices of inequality as the gaps between college-educated and non-college workers, and that between the 90th income percentile and the 10th income percentile, by a full 25 percent.
