Fuel Prices In Needles CA

And thats because they only spend our tax dollars on things they invest in (the Politicians)Like war equipment and setting up corporations in other countries etc so they can get in when they are at the bottom. And all their little programs. Both sides need to be thrown out and all new people voted in.
Government is not suppose to own anything. It is our money and we own them. Off soap box. lol

What's this snap card? Something like those clickers we used to have that you could carry around in your pocket and make noise with? Who gets snap cards anyway? Is it something I can have or is it just for illegal aliens or something?

Snap helps pay for food if you are low income and not on welfare, I think is how it works, I see senior citizens using the card sometimes at Walmart ,one older couple ahead of me spent almost 400 on food and only had to pay less than 20 bucks out of pocket using the card . Have no idea what income bracket qualifies for a Snap card  I never took the time to find out.

I just found out here in AZ I have been paying property taxes for 5 years AZ exempts me from paying since we are seniors and Sonja health ,I am going for that one all it takes is doctors signature on a 1 page form

Jere is the sanp website and it tells how your income below a certain amount will determine what you will be able to use. Its all here. No I don't use it but it is a good program for low income and seniors if they are on fixed incomes.

ok - back to bus topic - fuel. What's the bet diesel goes down after the holiday? I've been delaying filling up, being lazy, but now, maybe wait if it'll drop. Crude went up so not a sure bet it'll stay down.
I drove by Sam's yesterday the discovered you need a membership to get fuel. I'd likely save enough with one fill to pay for a membership. what a PIA! lol

[chessie4905]

Course it will. Same thing before Thanksgiving, Momorial day, 4th for last several years.

Oil closed at 86.00 for Sept delivery so don't expect much relief in fuel or food not going to happen in November ,inflation is on the rise.  LOL of all things Biden is going after Texas oil feilds over a friggin lizard they want to protect it never ends in politics, wonder how they will tell the birds like crows and owls those lizards are protected it is just stupid. Can you see it on the liberal news all the new jobs created by rounding up lizards on the Texas plains

Actually that lizard thing was started by Obama back in December of 2020 and will be decided by Wildlife fish and game in December of 2023. 150 people may lose their jobs but will be retrained like they did in New Mexico last year on the same thing according to NPR and Fox..

Cat food's not too bad. Linda and I can get by on a can each every day. Get tired of it though. Not enough variety.

John for the cat? Please tell me yes! Lol

It is stupid who ever started it the sand lizard is so small they are to see,till they get about a year old,I have caught those for years and they bite if you caught one by the tail they shed their tail and take off. In Monahan's Texas at the dunes those  are ants .The state of Texas owns the dunes where the oil wells are not the federal government. I don't how they can enforce it most all the oilfields are on private property there, a game warren can enter the property if he or she can prove poaching or a crime is being committed, Texas  property owners are not going that route no matter what Biden passes.

[chessie4905]

Yeah, like in West Virginia, Scranton, clothing industry, etc, etc.🤣

What y'all gripin' bout'? Come live in CA where that example is like pre-school antics. One of many reasons building here is outrageous is one of the checkboxes is getting an environmental report by a licensed and certified pro that your project will not harm any indiginous pests, namimal, plants, weeds, whatever. Next will be banning if there are any birds that fly overhead.
Ont the flip side, new regulations broadly allow lot splitting and secondary dwellings (ADU). With the cost of real estate never going to become afforable for the masses, these new reguations provide pathways to increase density and help property owners offset costs; these in addition to Prop 13 that provides relief over time.
OH - to keep post OT, fuel costs in CA are higher due to the increased regional and local regulations that force blended fuels making it more costly due to smaller production and distribution and higher inventory and supply costs.

Quite suprised today. We were at a laundramat today and needed quarters. Put 20 bucks in coin machine and got the same amount of quarters as ten years ago. What a country...🤩
