"Why Gas Bills Are Going Crazy—With No End in Sight" a story in the WSJ that describes causes and effects of increased natural gas price fluctuation. Causes are many, effects are widespread and feed inflation. The most interesting thing to me are the reader comments. Around 770 comments: usually we only see that many comments on social/cultural issues. Here, it is tons of "well actually" splaining, plus weaving politics and cultural tropes into the discussion. A typical comment begins "Answer is quite simple." then veers off into political accusation. Fortunately, I did not see Godwin's Law in play (yet).
