The problem is that oil co. profits soar.
That is the reason for high prices.
There is no unavoidable reason for high prices.
If someone just picked your pocket would you say that crime is higher elsewhere so it's ok to steal mine?

People will pay $1 for 20 oz of water in a bottle, then whine about $2 for 64 oz of refined gasoline.

Americans can stop crying about gas prices. We still pay some of the cheapest prices for gasoline in the world. Gas prices in Russia 2 weeks ago ... 9 rubles per liter.
$1.23 a gallon using their conversion rates from that time.
Not bad.
