  45.  @marcilk7534  I see that you have no idea how averages are calculated. You can't pick the starting point and ending point and ignore ever day in between. This information is actually tracked constantly by the government. No, oil prices do not follow the US economy. I pointed out several times where the change in the average (I hope I didn't lose you with that word again) price for the whole year did not match the economic trend for that same year. I guess facts are lost on you. You and your quote acknowledged the fact that the president can influence the economy and can influence the price of oil. Why did you bother to keep talking after that? Yes supply and demand is the biggest factor. The president has a huge influence over both. A president that is hostile to the oil industry can take a wrecking ball to it through revoking land access, drilling rights, supply chains and methods, production limits, and taxes, just like Obama did with the coal industry. Biden could shut off the supply of foreign oil or the flow of oil from one country with the stroke of a pen if he wanted to. That changes the global supply and the global demand. Trump had an effect on the global economy as every US president does. He threatened to withdraw our contribution of 3% of our GDP from NATO because most of the other member nations were negligent and far below the required 2% contribution by at least .5%. That threat had ripples that changed the global political and economic standing of multiple countries. Obama didn't do that and Biden likely wouldn't have done it. The US president has a significant global influence and I'm sure you know that too. The quote you chose to use proves that you were wrong. I doesn't mean much because it is also wrong. If the price was kept low due to the pandemic, why was it lower before the pandemic and increased durring the pandemic? Jesus, wake up.
