Ohio farmer on rising diesel cost: It’s a ‘challenge’
Yoder Farms owner Josh Yoder says he spends $1,500 a day for one tractor amid skyrocketing diesel cost.

Fuel supplier Mansfield Energy is taking steps to prepare for a diesel shortage on the East Coast of the United States, issuing an advisory to businesses that rely on the fuel to plan rather than panic. Last week, Mansfield Energy raised a red flag on the upcoming diesel fuel shortage in the southeastern region of the U.S., speculating it could be from "poor pipeline shipping economies" and a historically low supply of reserves.

On a normal day, the East Coast markets have 50 million barrels in storage, but right now, there are less than 25 million barrels available. "A tight diesel supply will force prices to go up, which will eventually make it too expensive for some people," the company said in a press release on Monday. "High prices will bring demand back down enough that it balances with limited supply."

This could all be avoided but the democrats declared war on fossil fuel on day one of dementia Joe's presidency.

There is no good reason for there to be a diesel fuel shortage. The deep state can take measures to create the shortage and because of the high diesel prices most consumers don't directly feel the pinch unless they directly purchase diesel or fuel oil. Gas prices are down a bit just for the coming election, then there's no telling what will happen to gasoline prices... My fuel oil tank was filled up recently. Think I paid just a little less than $5 a gallon. My tank holds 1000 gallons.

I wonder how will this effect the military, navy, airforce, coast guard, etc.?

The various units all have budgets to work within. When I was in we never had to stop flying because we ran out of money to buy fuel... seems like we always had plenty of money for training and missions. Don't know if that's the case now...

I remember some ammo shortages when I was on Active Duty (a very long time ago). We were still able to qualify, but a lot of units couldn't, especially support and service support units. It hurt a lot of Soldiers for promotion because no current qualification meant no promotion points in that area. It also hurt a lot of units on readiness.

Diesel as an individual product is so much easier to produce than gas and other fuels. Problem is - raw crude oil being shipped to refineries! Biden admin had reduced the production, thus delivery, of crude oil dramatically!! This is so hard to comprehend. To save the environment? The actual production of diesel these days is so much "cleaner", if you will, than it was in years past. Many of the gasses being released in the production of diesel is being re-captured by refineries and used as heating in helping to reduce cost of gases for heating. It is actually unbelievable how much oil is produced here in the US. But like I said a LOT of that production was cut back thus insuring the shortages we're now facing. Honestly makes no sense what so ever!

It makes alot of sense when you understand the evil global agenda. Less oil production means more control. Completely disrupts the middle class. This is what "they" want.
There is enough oil in Texas and New Mexico alone to fuel the US for the next 200 years , not that this world will even be here then , but you get the point.
What I also find interesting is that Russia and Iran have the most natural gas reserves.

It don't add up.
We are recovering from the shutdown. We have a shortage of drivers. Railroads have increased efficiency fantastically.

There should be plenty of diesel.
Diesel is a lower grade fuel, it should be easier to make.

Jets run on kerosene a lighter diesel fuel. With less travel there should be more supply available.

Perhaps its the caterpillar effect. Everyone shuts down, so there was a surplus. Refineries then went offline to use up the supply. Now demand resurges and the system has to gear back up.
Throw in a fire, breakdown, foreign war and political meddling.... Boom instant crisis - to be managed for political gain...


I'm so glad God is sovereign as with men, this whole world would explode. Of course after the extreme mismanagement of the system is dealt with, The Lord has a controlled demolition and rebuild plan ready to implement.

diesel shortage definitely starting to become a real thing. It’s probably wise to truly stock up. Hope and Pray for the best but prepare for the worst.

I work in logistics and I don’t think things will do anything but go up cause the cost to get things from A to B has sky rocketed.

Remember the toilet paper runs during Covid? (No pun intended) this has the potential to be like that on several fronts and it could kind of be a thing pretty quickly IF the railroad does strike.

Not trying to be an alarmist but it is kind of alarming what’s lining up.

We have been dealing with “epic driver shortages” in the shipping/trucking industry and if the rail road strikes, that will put such a huge demand for trucks to help handle what the rail road stops shipping and I can only imagine what the costs to ship will jump too! Factor in the impact of diesel shortages where carriers get to truck stops and have to wait for a couple of days to fuel up, carriers will have to charge for the time they sit plus the spike in diesel prices so that will cause huge inflationary jump on goods yet also delays in goods getting to shelves.

If you lived where a blizzard was coming you’d know to be ready, well to me this is a storm lining up to be stocked up for!

So hope cooler heads prevail and some how our fuel supply is miraculously replenished but unfortunately it seems our world is trending towards a very very rough patch. Cause I think we aren't dealing with cooler heads but rather ...reprobate minded leaders hell bent on crashing current economic system.

As a believer we can trust “My God shall supply all my needs according to His riches” but might need to go get those supplies sooner rather than later just fyi

\o/ Looking UP, praying for Jesus to come quickly, but in the "mean time" be vigilant and proactive!!

This doesn’t have to be. Globalists and climate yellers are the problem.
At least in our day the hippies tried to live like they preached. You know these go to their warm/cool homes after driving or riding transportation and then they are going to feed themselves that’s for sure. Also I’d like to see them give up plastics first since we know everything is/has plastic.
I’m so ready to be out of this world.

Talk about a disaster! How many days will it take to deplete the gasoline supply across the nation? Forced to stay home, instead of lockdowns? Same result as far as the cabal is concerned. Who gets to go to work? What happens to things we take for granted like mail delivery, going to appointments that need to be kept, etc.?
This sounds like a backup plan to destroy America since the CO-v-2 thing has fizzled out and didn’t achieve the degree of devastation they planned on. Is digital money next? You want gasoline? You can have some if you have been a good little boy or girl.

If there's no gasoline and so no cars on the highway, can I ignore the sign prohibiting bicycles on the interstate and take the short way to the VA on my bike?

Of course, once I get there, they'll have to admit me and I'll miss the appointment anyway

ing for the Lord's grace, guidance and merciful help. He is faithful and worthy to be trusted.

It makes no sense at all! It does not save the environment when we buy fuel from the middle east or Venezuela and load it up on a dirty barge to ship to the USA. Isn't that polluting the oceans?

Very few people understand (yet) that when they are finally successful in adapting both Central bank digital currencey and a china style social credit systerm…we will then officially be living in the WEF (actually NWO) matrix whether we realize it or not.

They will be able to marginalize you, shut off your voice (in a social media sense) and take away all your finances/ability to buy or sell…finally, you will be isolated because others will not want to have their posterity threatened by being associated with you. It’s the mark of the beast lite. No mark required and you won’t be killed but economically and socially you may as well have been.

Social credit is a terrifyingly efffective way to shape human behavior. Even secular people are leery of it but once we get a new extended “lock down” thing going again if it’s pitched as the only way to let people live their “normal” lives again, people will lap it up willingly just like they did useless and dangerous Covid Vaccines.

Another sticker with Joe saying “I did that!”

Still pollutes the air unless the vehicle, equipment, machinery, etc. the petroleum/products are being used in has good enough pollution control that the net effect is zero or negative on emissions.

FWIW, Prius (Prii?) emissions are cleaner than the air going in Mobile air cleaners!

Greenies/.gov should be paying people with mobile air cleaners to drive since it's good for the environment
Unlimited free fuel?!!!
