Gas prices. I'm perplexed that you somehow missed the connection.

How did the US screw up being the world's biggest producer of natural gas, and being energy independent?

Gas as in fuel. Are you being deliberately dense?

Anyways you're changing the topic now. Glad I could help you understand how the ukraine war affected the US economy. Good day.

No, I'm not from the US, so the colloquial usage of "gas" as "fuel for cars" slipped my mind.

The US is also a net exporter of crude oil, so all I've said so far still applies.

How has the Ukraine war affected gasoline prices? Are you just talking about the state you live in, or US-wide?
