I doub't that it's guilt or remorse or even fear of the government. Gas was unnaturally high for some time. Had they had released financials of a quarter that had a $10 billion dollar loss we'd understand the price hike. That extra dollar fifty we each paid didn't do anything but line the pockets of the oil companies. In fairness the oil companies are only part of the price issue, but yes it's about damn time that prices drop. Another $0.75 per gallon drop and I think that we can resume worrying about other issues. I think Bush has the ability to make some changes to help us with the cost of fuel. Should he do so he'll be remembered for quite some time.
