Well, I'm sure you know more about it than anyone. But just seems when you take the cap off anything it can go as high as it wants. Just saying. No I have no idea what the cap should be, but when it was removed, ah well, that's why I never go here.Quote:

I don't have a clue as to what the price should be and don't claim omniscience like all the utopian big government types do who think they know best at how every aspect of how society should be conducted.Quote:

Twice every year in the United States, the fuel supply changes. It's known as the seasonal gasoline transition. This change is the biggest reason for the price hike in summer gasoline. Depending on the time of year, gas stations switch between providing summer-grade fuel and winter-grade fuel. The switch started in 1995 as part of the Reformulated Gasoline Program (RFG), which was established through the 1990 Clean Air Act Amendments. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) started the RFG program in order to reduce pollution and smog during the summer ozone season, which occurs from June 1 to Sept. 15 [Source: EPA].

It is NOT just an accident that we are headed for $5.00/gallon on gasoline.
It has been Obama's intention all along. Here is a quote by Stephen Chu, Obama's Sec'ry of Energy
"Somehow we have to figure out how to boost the price of gasoline to the levels in Europe."
Here are some examples of Obama's action to raise the price of gasoline:
1) Stopping the Keystone Oil Pipeline
2) Delaying the approvals for offshore drilling off Louisiana
3) Continuing the blockage of drilling in ANWR (Alaskan National Wildlife Refuge)
4) Blocking offshore drilling in Alaska
5) Blocking exploration offshore between Cuba and the USA
6) Stopping research for converting coal to gasoline
I think I read where Saudi Arabia reduced production after they said they would increase it. Sell less crude get same income.Quote:
