I heard today, I think it was on NPR, that due to Nancy Pelosi & the liberal leadership's unwillingness to allow a vote on the subject of drilling (& haste to take a vacation) the price of gas is predicted to cost us an estimated additional $2.00 per gallon within the next 2-4 weeks. The break in prices we've seen since the tide turned in regard to the domestic drilling issue will be neutralized and the price we pay will increase dramatically...Thanks Nancy, Thanks Obama!!!! ...she'll make you an excellent VP!!
I think there doesn't really have to be a reason to raise prices, there just has to be an excuse. I think they had to back the prices off before jumping them up again. Similar things happened at $1 $2 and $3 if I remember correctly. Take it up to $4, back it off by a quarter give or take. So when it goes over $4 to stay (and that will probably be soon...before Oct), we will already be accustomed to paying almost that and $4 won't seem as shocking. Who is the 'they'? I dunno...speculators, the market, oil companies, OPEC. It really doesn't matter. It is the way I see the game being played.
