I believe with 81 00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:33,519 Speaker 4: some of the gas price increases at the pump in 82 00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:36,840 Speaker 4: New York all over the country, I actually think it's 83 00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:42,080 Speaker 4: price gougel because please, somebody don't tell me that the 84 00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:46,640 Speaker 4: gas in the storage tanks wasn't there before the start 85 00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:50,240 Speaker 4: of the war three weeks ago. The fuel delivery trucks 86 00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:52,800 Speaker 4: that bring the trucks to the gas station, they have 87 00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:55,640 Speaker 4: to go to these massive tanks to fuel up. Why 88 00:03:55,920 --> 00:03:59,240 Speaker 4: all those trucks were empty at the start. All those 89 00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:01,560 Speaker 4: tanks were amped at the start of the war and 90 00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:05,360 Speaker 4: they had to bude the gas at top dollar prices. 91 00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:09,120 Speaker 4: First off, that gas was refined six months ago. So 92 00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:12,880 Speaker 4: me personally, I believe that there is price gougry going. 93 00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:15,000 Speaker 1: Absolutely no. We have all the gas we need here, 94 00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:17,200 Speaker 1: We've had it, and we don't take it. I get 95 00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:19,640 Speaker 1: no gas in this country. We get no gas from 96 00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:23,080 Speaker 1: the Straits of Horror mooes. That's China Iran that India 97 00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:24,440 Speaker 1: gets get another. 98 00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:28,719 Speaker 4: This lights out law is crazy because I remember in 99 00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:32,560 Speaker 4: the nineteen fifties when they passed the law that homeowners 100 00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:36,840 Speaker 4: had to put on the outside entrance of their buildings 101 00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:41,360 Speaker 4: lights because the theory was at the time that more 102 00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:45,479 Speaker 4: lights on the street would reduce street crime, adding the 103 00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:48,560 Speaker 4: way it does. I mean, you're old enough to remember 104 00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:51,560 Speaker 4: when there was the blackout in New York City and 105 00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:54,960 Speaker 4: everything was out. It was kind of dangerous to go 106 00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:58,520 Speaker 4: out on the street because it was like a doctor's 107 00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:03,120 Speaker 4: that that was probably felt like from warsome buggy days. 108 00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:04,520 Speaker 4: So what are they talking about. 109 00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:07,320 Speaker 1: It's just crazy. They're Democrats, They're crazy. They think it 110 00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:09,360 Speaker 1: will conserve energy. They want the lights, and maybe it's 111 00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:11,360 Speaker 1: to help the criminals, maybe make it easier for them. 112 00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:11,760 Speaker 2: Mark. 113 00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:15,200 Speaker 4: A couple of years ago, I actually received a ticket 114 00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:18,799 Speaker 4: because they said an inspector went around in the middle 115 00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:22,200 Speaker 4: of the night and the lights are supposed to go 116 00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:25,560 Speaker 4: off automatically at six o'clock in the morning, and my 117 00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:28,600 Speaker 4: lights went off for four o'clock. First thought, I thought 118 00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:31,240 Speaker 4: it was a bunch of bs because I said, what 119 00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:35,480 Speaker 4: inspector is driving around at four o'clock and it was 120 00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:36,760 Speaker 4: a rust to make money. 121 00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:39,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a New York City Inspector.
