Even more reason to invest in alternative sources of energy.

Oil is a NON-renewable resource and we can expect to see prices only increase.

Even when I get That Job, I won't be able to afford the kind of home that I dream of. Not unless there are huge tax breaks and subsidies.

here comes reality again! recession all over! We are in trouble for sure! Obama's recovery fictitious and his big speeches can't hold down gas prices and following recession! But we'll see! But I do know this country cannot handle a recession. If there is a recovery as they lie about , its certain it is dead now! Sorry not being negative, because if gas goes outrageous it is reality time!!

Five-buck gas on the way? For that price I'd better at least get a kiss. http://theeconomiccollapseblog.com/archives/5-dollar-gas-get-ready-to-pay-an-arm-and-a-leg-for-gasoline

it's the revolutions in the middle east driving the prices but the gas had never gone down before the unrest over there.

The crisis in Libya can't last forever. It will be over in 6 months.

What amuses me is that so many people seem to think that this is our government's fault somehow, as if they sell gas. Why don't you blame the oil companies who get billions in our tax money and use any excuse at all to raise gas through the roof? But no, it's Obama's fault right? I didn't blame Bush for high Gas prices or the for the fact that I couldn't even get gas after Katrina and no one else did either. Oh wait, I forgot, don't mention the past.

These gas prices are outrageous......I filled up this morning at the Shell Gas station for $3.35 a gallon and I got there just in time as the truck was pulling in to refill......and now the gas is $3.49 a gallon tonight......That is a 14 cents increase.....That is ridiculous.....at this rate we will be at four dollars a gallon within the next couple of weeks.....This is crazy......

Yeah I estimate that guess will go up to around $4 for a while. Which means I won't drive much. The oil companies will use any excuse to increase costs.


What state do you live in? Near a large city?

CNN Money states four (4) dangers to U.S. Economy because of the Middle East crisis:
Higher oil prices (no brainer)
Sharp spending cuts in government
End of QE2
and falling stock prices (loss of wealth would be felt)

OH WELL!

The increase in gas prices HURTS ONLY the lower and middle income people.

I am against it. From what I've read quite some time ago there isn't much oil there. Besides the oil that is piped currently is sold abroad.
