AAA said Labor Day travelers can expect the highest gas prices ever for this time of year. The national average for regular gas was $4.14 on Sunday.

    Okay, so tell CEOs to stop making people return to office for no practical reason (other than control)

      Give companies financial incentive to allow workers to stay home if possible and they’ll do it. It seems like a no brainer to me, less financial burden on roadways, emergency crews, cleaning crews, and infrastructure. I would rather those savings be used for improvement or returned to the taxpayer but hey, if it makes it happen I think it’s a fair trade off.

    I think the trick is to inform Iran that you’re cutting off Israel’s military completely and withdrawing from future actions in the Persian Gulf though it may be too late.

    Also, figure out non car alternatives.

      Iran has made clear that a condition for further negotiations is Israeli withdrawal from Lebanon.
      Since cutting off their military is unlikely to achieve that, I suggest the US should enter the theater directly and bomb the IDF back into their borders.
