Description
Why are gas prices still high even when oil prices drop?
In this episode, Joe Pags sits down with oil and gas expert Jay Young, CEO of King Operating Corporation, to break down what’s really happening behind the scenes in the global energy market.
From supply chain disruptions to refinery limitations and global demand, Jay explains why Americans are still paying more at the pump — and why prices may not be coming down anytime soon.
They also dive into:
- The truth about “energy independence”
- Why global conflicts impact YOUR gas prices
- How oil is traded worldwide — and why that matters
- The role of OPEC and market manipulation
- Why the U.S. still relies on foreign oil despite strong domestic production
- What could happen to gas prices in the coming months
If you’ve ever wondered why gas prices don’t seem to make sense — this is the conversation you need to hear.
