President can not just order that oil price is now $20 barrel.

I recommend you stop posting in this thread, your above reply only makes the hole deeper.
MOST product's prices are GREATLY influenced by supply and demand, for many it is the number one influencer; the price is more greatly manipulated for products that are NEEDED, vs. products purchased due to want.
When you have less product and demand remains constant, the price is increased by the current suppliers--this is called capitalism, and IS LEGAL.
The price is also increased more greatly by the new providers, as they GREATlY leverage your significant inability to provide at the level you delivered only one or two years ago.
depends joe is 100+% responsible for the higher prices all of have paid at the pumps since JAN 2021, he owns it, as does he own the inflation issue, he is an incompetent in the highest degree.
