exactly krosty! I believe this is all being done purposely to further eliminate the midddle class! Because oil demand is not correlating with these prices!

Blame the fed, they are pumping trillions into the markets shoving up the price of everything from gas, corn, pork bellies, orange juice.
You name it.
They are causing mass inflation propping up the markets.

It doesn't matter to the rich driving around in their Escalades.

It's an endless cycle. Rich business want more profits, so they cut costs (labor). Labor's can't afford to buy goods from businesses so money most be injected into the system. Rich income is adjusted to inflation via stocks, ect. Middle class suffers.

This will go on and on and this country will grasp it to it's death.

The folks in charge are trying to build a nice New World Order. It's going to be the same for everyone everywhere. This leaves them with two choices:

1. Bring everyone up to the same level.

2. Bring everyone down to the same level.

The second is easier. Since you know gas prices are much higher in the rest of the developed world, you can probably figure out which way your gas prices will be heading in the future.

Re: Why the hell is gas so expensive?!
Just like diamonds, gold and most everything else
its price is being MANIPULATED, duh.

All kinds of state and envirotaxes play a large roll here too.

AND because HEMP is prohibited (unlimited source of biodiesel).



Quite simple actually, buy a bike and/or scooter dude.

Use the car only in winter, carpool, walk.

bump


here is about 1,60€ per liter.
(maybe $7-8 gallon, dunno, you do the maff)

and still people REFUSE to give up their
big audi-merc-bmw V6-V8 limousines even tho
they clearly cannot afford them anymore,
but it's a HUGE status symbol over here,
and the truck/suv ppl are even worse, idiots.

Yup, I think the plan is to use up the world's oil and then we're the only ones left with plenty...

^this. And by the time the rest of the world is out of oil and we could be living like Saudi sheiks, all of the technology to get the oil and gas out will be illegal, and the energy from wind and solar won't be high enough to get it out any other way.
The constitutions of most of our States and the United States assert, that all power is inherent in the people; that they may exercise it by themselves, in all cases to which they think themselves competent, or they may act by representatives, freely and equally chosen; that it is their right and duty to be at all times armed; that they are entitled to freedom of person, freedom of religion, freedom of property, and freedom of the press. -Thomas Jefferson in a letter to John Cartwright, June 5, 1824

Could be. Then at the same time as the last drops are used they could release the alternate power source driven engines and use all the oil left to become the world’s only producer of plastics, conquest complete.

Was just saying this exact thought this weekend

Since they don't want to lower the cost of living for those in europe the UK or other commonwealth countries, they must raise it for those in the USA

so you pay through the nose now, right brief? and if your scenario unfolds, do you think americans will be paying less than the rest of the world at that point, with even more scarcity of oil? somehow i don't think so.
