It’s already $3.39 here.
While in Philly the other day it seemed like every 100% car was a Prius, is it like that around you?
Will 5$ a gallon wake Americans up? Hell now. At least 1/3 of Americans are brain dead and will stumble all over themselves in a stupor and bitch but will have no idea they caused it.
If gas climbs to $4 a gallon again, the economy will collapse again.
3.49 here
There are no buses or trains within 200 miles of my rural location. Guess they'll have to send me to a relocation camp.
The sun does not rise, it appears to rise.
The price of oil is not rising, it appears to be rising.
The truth is that Barry, Tim and Ben are devaluing the dollar.
When will people get that they are stealing from all of us in every transaction?
And it will be Bush's fault.
I wonder how they will handle pricing in the battery replacement, those high use units will prolly have battery issues earlier than usual).
Btw- what do you do with used up Nickel Metal Hydride's?
With demand for oil increasing in China and India as well as the US, the price of oil will continue to increase as will drilling in the United States.
However, I’m not sure about the $149 oil, but $110 or 120 dollar oil is very likely unless there is some great negative impact on the world’s demand for oil.
Increased oil prices will simply mean that the world’s economy is improving.
The left WANT gas at 5 bucks a gallon. 5 buck a gallon will cause food prices to skyrocket.
This gives the left cover they need to demonize big energy as greedy and food companies as stingy.
The media will play the ‘we need government’ card to demand that American’s right to food is an entitlement much like the left have done with health care and housing.
Control food and you control the population.
Remember, EVERYTHING the left does is in increments with the ultimate goal of not just controlling the country but mostly depopulation.
If price were driven only by demand, that would be true. Price increases due to cuts in supply are more problematic, particularly in a down economy.
$3.59 for shell premium in CA since xmas.
You bet, that’s the plan. Here in the West there’s been a war on rural America for 15 years or so.
that's $220 a barrel
Cuts in the supply are typically of a very short duration, while increase in demand is long term.
And with the predicted increase in demand and increase in the price of oil, we have seen the number or drilling rigs greatly increase over the last year.
He and his henchmen are doing what is necessary to make sure that happens. He meant what he said and yet the idiots voted for him anyway.
When you print money, and your currency is tied the price of a commodity guess what, the cost goes up... That being said, its still overpriced due to speculation and churning of contracts etc.. but that’s another story.
