I think a primary drive in the high prices is stock speculation. It is artificially high because of this.

There is already some distance being put between the current administration and the people who have an election in the future.
Point 1 Cedars. Some countries in Europe Tax on the SIZE of the motor in your car. Thus promoting fuel economy, unlike here.

Speculation? YES! Speculate an economy without Oil!!

The administration will feel the effects of this as people realize what a bunch of ill-intent a-holes they are. You are right on that.

Good for alternative fuels though and about time...

Hows the weather? How about those gas prices??
