If you want another holy shit moment, go look at what's happened to the price of diesel -- which is rather important for shipping basically everything...

We hit a rather disturbing milestone in California last month: https://fortune.com/2026/09/10/9-999-maxed-out-california-diesel-prices-overwhelm-pump-displays/ -- and we hit the highest recorded average price nationally of $6.5276/gallon about a week ago according to this source.

Shit is absolutely fucked right now.

    I listed prices in USD per gallon -- converting: 2.35 euros per liter (the alarming price showing up in California -- a state where we literally pump oil out of the ground) seems low to you?!
