Just paid 3.53 a gallon. a few weeks, maybe a month or so ago it was 2.99...
It can tank any day now.
Well, Obama might release some crude to drive the prices down and erode Russia’s profits a bit. Shame he didn’t allow the pipeline to go through. See that Obama? STupid decisions lead to stupid unintended consequences.
It’s mostly a Government game dude, they’re doing it with everything.
- Cattle lowest since 1950 because of inclement weather?
- Corn going up, inclement weather?
- Fresh Fruits and Vegatables going up, inclement weather?
- Pork, Chicken .... blah blah, inclement weather?
- Wheat and Soy
Think about it. Everything Obama has done has resulted in making it more expensive to live. They don’t want income redistribution, they just want everybody poor.
Get the picture? Somebody is reinforcing global warming on us.
3.59 yesterday ... 3.60 today
Ping.
What? Oh, sorry, my mind got stuck on that phrase “Incremental Gyrations” . Might be a good title for a novel.
and who can’t recall the good old days when Bush was President and it was either summer of 2001/02 when gas tanked to under 1.00 a gallon.
Gas - 3.039, but Diesel is ~4.099
Sounds nice, I just paid 3.77.9 and that was at Costco.
Yeah, I’d like to at least see SOME downward movement. Imagine where we’d be without fracking.
The cheapest I’ve seen here in SW Pennsylvania is 3.55 a gallon.
same here.
if gas ever tanks to 2.00 a gallon,then the economy will improve and millions more people will find work,then millions more people will vote GOP !!! what will Obama do?
Ping
Gas will not go down significantly regardless of the price of crude.
Gasoline is also driven by insane federal regulations, dozens and dozens of different required formulations for different cities. All for the purpose of driving up gas prices.
How is a single refinery supposed to make 59 varieties of gas (contaminated with subsidized ethanol) and deliver as such.
Face it, the feds will regulate out of the cost of gas any improvements that accrue from lower crude prices.
I went out on the National Guard Training Base, Fort McClellan, Alabama today. It was $2.98 there. Went up 3 cents from last week. Most places around here are $3.07 to $3.19.
I’ll believe it when I pay for it at the pump.
OUCH. And we were just told that a local refinery that supplies most of the gas in this area was "shut down for maintenance" early. Normally they wait till May. Guess they wanted the price higher.
