Between the masked profile picture, bad math and faux outrage i figured it had to be satire. Well executed troll though!
Interesting. Just two questions, if I may.

Bingo 30k. I'm glad you posted that. It's just a theory of mine, but I think they're also enjoying watching cities turn to garbage (and buying up cheap real estate). I'm thinking SF and NYC for starters. Eventually these will be popular places to live again and they will own a huge stake.$30,000 Millionaire said:
the government has not really directly assisted the tax payer. They've assisted firms like Blackrock who went and bought up all the rental homes.
If Daniel will oblige, I am curious to get his perspective on how UBI solves inflation challenges. Just a guess, but it could take some heat off of wages because in theory, there would be fewer people searching for jobs.
I'm not an economist, just a value investor at heart and a trader. Volcker stopped it in the 80s with extreme interest rates, which in essence created demand destruction. Stagflation is inevitable, I'm afraid.

On a side note, have been dealing with horrible trauma these past 10-12 days! I operated the worst thoracic fracture I've seen in 12 yrs last week, and today a young guy came in after a motorcycle crash who has occipitocervical dislocation (AOD), otherwise known as internal decapitation I never liked that term tho. He's getting scheduled for occipitocervical fusion for the morning. Horrible injury.
I've done one or two others in my 3 yrs in practice and the first one I did (almost 2 yrs ago) walked into my office last
Month and is basically normal, so really proud of her outcome.
I'll try to post some pics of the radiographs when I can.
We have 2 vets, I believe Spud1910 is the other, and a surgeon in our clubhouse! That's awesome.SoTXAg09 said:BaylorSpineGuy said:

Looking forward to the radiographs.
Saw a dog yesterday yesterday that survived a gunshot wound to the head. Entered proximal and medial to the right eye, destroying that eye, then blew out the back of his right mandible. Of course, it's a dog though, so he'll get to wear a muzzle for 6 weeks and the mandible will heal however it does.

I'm probably wrong but this massive shift to EVs by everyone doesn't interest me at all. I see more of over promising and underdelivering and a lot of consumers will be disappointed. I'll play swings in their stocks but truly investing in them isn't for me.
Agreed, I just don't see them doing what ICE vehicles can do. Matter of fact, I'll probably "Bobby Boucher" my happy ass around town on my lawnmower before I ever buy one.BrokeAssAggie said:

You don't think all these gas station conglomerates like Bucee's, Cefco, 7-11, etc aren't already planning expansions with this in mind?McInnis 03 said:ProgN said:You're far from a dumbass. I like the caliber of people that this thread attracts.$30,000 Millionaire said:

Buy land. Install nice ****ters, vending machines, and high power car chargers.
Fuel stations of the future.
Why would any O&G company sign on to this without assurances that the EPA or some other agency won't change the rules after the midterms? I'm not in the industry so I'm just genuinely curious because I know some of you on here are.Quote:
The Biden administration said it will resume selling leases to drill for oil and gas on federal lands starting next week, but with a major reduction in the number of acres offered and an increase in the royalties companies must pay to drill.
The Interior Department announced that on Monday it will release a sale notice for leases to drill on 144,000 acres of government land 80 percent less than what was initially being evaluated for potential leasing.
President Joe Biden, who on the campaign trail called for an end to drilling on federal lands, has been looking for ways to temporarily increase U.S. energy production to help drive down the price of gas.
The move comes amid growing pressure for the Biden administration to do more to lower gas prices, with Republicans in particular saying it should allow more drilling.
Industry experts say it would take at least six months to a year before new drilling on federal land would produce additional supply and ultimately bring down the cost of gas, which has emerged as a major midterm election issue.
The two best purchases I have made the past few years were a battery blower and trimmer; had gas-powered Husqvarna's for several years but eventually spent more time getting them to start instead of actually using them (I know, user issue).BrokeAssAggie said:

For small engines only buy ethanol free gas if available in your area. If mixed fuel is required, buy the ethanol free fuel from HD, Ace, etc. If your small engine has a gas cutoff switch, use that. Cut the gas and let it burn up what's in the line until it dies, especially if you're putting them up for the winter. Those tips go a long way in making them easy to start when you need them.Ag CPA said:The two best purchases I have made the past few years were a battery blower and trimmer; had gas-powered Husqvarna's for several years but eventually spent more time getting them to start instead of actually using them (I know, user issue).BrokeAssAggie said:

Old enough to remember using electrics with an extension cord so anything cordless is awesome as far as I am concerned.
Thanks, but what prevents the EPA or a presidential EO from coming in and changing or creating new burdensome regulations on O&G companies? Also, with them pushing this ESG crap on banks it makes it harder for them to get loans. Or am I off base and misinterpreting articles I've read?BrokeAssAggie said:
If the hydrocarbons are there people will pick up the leases. Fed leases are 10 year terms. Royalty was 1/8, looks like they are bumping that up, but I'm guessing it will still be less than 25%, which is what most fee owners get these days.
Thanks, I'm learning on the fly thanks to y'all in the industry.Charismatic Megafauna said:
To expand on what brokeass said... since i already took the time to write this up...
So when the blm puts leases up for sale they tell you what lands are available and what the terms of the lease are, including royalty rate (% of production they have to pay the gov). Companies bid the bonus they are willing to pay (price they are willing to pay to get the lease). If they think the lease is economical under the new terms they'll bid on it. The market will tell us real quickly whether or not companies will take federal leases with higher royalties. If they catch as many and high of bids as they did with the lower rates biden will look like a genius (even though those leases may not make it into anybody drill schedule unless oil goes back to 120). If nothing catches a bid the sale the media gets to say the oil companies are greedy and don't care about energy independence
