Something fucking stinks. Gas has been holding close to, or below $3.20 for years. One dollar in a few months indicates much more than simple supply and demand, which should take years to manifest itself.

If you look at the historic gas prices.. Since 2001 (ie the era of Bush and co) the price of gas at the pump has doubled every 3 years. It was on average $1.40/gal when Bush came into office and had been stable for years in the $1/gal range. Now it's almost $4/gal after him being in office for 7 years.. Hell it maybe $4/gal now, for all I know it's been a few weeks since I filled up.
