Wanna know why gas prices are so high?

[Eager Beaver]

Joke or not there is no improved demand for extra oil and the flo hasn't been interupted, just the threat of being cut off but Saudi Arabia has said they would release more oil to make up the difference so why do you think the price has raised so drastically in recent weeks, DB4D?? EB

Maybe because Obama has the worst energy policy ever:

Terrible policy from the White House coupled with tensions in the Mideast is never a good thing for gas prices. The silver lining to this cloud is that it could be Obama's undoing. :Hands Clapping

I usually don't get on this part of Crappie.com but does anyone remember when George Bush Jr. Removed the cap on oil Prices?

So and you think you know what the cap on oil prices should be. Please share that with us.

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.

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.

But from my limited reading of history I do know that the free markets have proven to be much better at supplying the things the folks need and want way better than any of the command economies have ever done from their foolishly held fabled delusional positions of omniscience.

Mr. LBM it seems you repeat that little "preaching sentence" at the bottom of all your posts. I highly recommend that you take all your Meds. in the morning, and an extra Valium. Buddy, you need to chill out, or breath in a paper bag.

I think I read where Saudi Arabia reduced production after they said they would increase it. Sell less crude get same income.
