And they try to explain that shit away everytime with supply/demand economics models which are total BS. Its funny when you look at Yahoo news or other AP sources and they pose that same question and its always backed up with some utter crap explanation supposed to calm the masses.

Big oil has been fucking everybody from day one, then the governments use it conveniently to tax the living crap of you.
