Thursday

is that the price of gasoline has remained relatively low over Krasnov's 2nd reign. Maybe Krasnov's fossil fuel pals are keeping the price down for him? Yeah, I know all about how gas prices are determined, and I heard about the invisible hand of the market and supply and demand, and I also know about crony capitalism, when is Krasnov going to bail out big farmers?
