Gas will be more expensive soon.

Aparently countries are upset that gas has gotten too cheap over the last few weeks.

When oil was $150 a barrel it was $4 a gallon

If oil is now $75 a barrel shouldnt it be $2 a gallon like it was the last time oil was $75 a barrel?

prices wont jump... america has cut back fuel consumption by leaps and bounds. They just want to make the speculators go crazy but it won't work. Reg is 2.52 and falling. Soon it will be around the area where the normal inflation rates should have it. Now if we can just have these damn people knock off the "fuel surcharge" ******** now...i still pay through the nose on those costs at my business.

The reports I've been reading are saying even if OPEC cuts their output it probably won't stop the fall of prices. It might steady them or we might see a SLIGHT increase but they'll still continue to fall long term.

2.45 around me for regular. I had to do a double take!
But with oil down another 5 bucks, it seems that this news hasnt done much. Massive, massive sell offs in the comodity segment, so dont expect to see oil coming back up.

Yea the cut basically means the demand for oil has dropped. Prices will stop drop like rocks

The country could solve this by drilling it's own oil, but we know a certain group of politicians that won't let it happen. "It will take 10 years.....blah blah blah", well since that same excuse has been getting used for 20+ years now, it looks like it would have kept us largely out of the current situation.
