I think the higher it goes the better the government likes it. the gas taxes are a percentage of the cost. which means the higher the prices the more money in taxes the government gets. They have no incentive to fight to lower the prices and every reason to cheer for them to raise.
Gas taxes are based on a per gallon basis....not a percentage.
