Oil/Gasoline Prices All Time High Again???

WTF???

See? Soon as I get ready to get a mini-rv some evil warlord hikes up the oil/gasoline prices again.

News said if the prices remain this high airlines will have to cut back flights??? WTF?

Don't even reply to this thread. We've worn ourselves out arguing about this shit so much it's worthless to argue any further.

Why do I have this strange feeling that by this winter there'll be some major battle in Iraq/Iran that will cause oil flow to cease especially to China as the prices go sky high.

Ha! Oil hits another all time high today. Like 3 or 4 times this week?

Here in California they're saying gas will hit $3 per gallon in a few days? Man, I wanna see this shit for myself! It's already at $2.75 and $2.80

anti-airlines.

anti-pacifists.

airplanes are man's biggest ego trip, its no surprise they will be used as weapons forever. And i do not support man's desire to fly.

what goes up comes down, and when it does I laugh.

man's ego will be his death.

The only people that try to do something about it are the truckers...

They'll get fed up again and shut down the interstates like they did a few years ago..

The rest of the people won't try to ban together to do anything but bitch and moan.. as with everything else that happens..

Boycotts are a thing of the past..

Maybe we can't do without gas for very long, but we can boycott anything made in other countries. But that's too much of an inconvenience for everyone I suppose..

i was excited the day the trucks blocked some freeways here.

problem is, as long as the police serve the State - the People's will goes unheard.

they will arrest and take a truckers driving career before they allow them to "say" anything in protest on a state funded road.

sad but so fuckin true!

alot of people dont understand how gas is the thing that keeps this country going. we've relied everything on gas & transportation that we *need* it to continue living the lives we live.

limo drivers, busses, planes, truckers, business travelers, delivery services (UPS, FedEx, etc), postal service, etc etc.....

whats gonna happen when we cant afford gas as a nation because its way too high & yet, people are still being paid the same?? this country is going to hell in a hand-basket. its more than just high gas prices, THEY DONT SEE THE PRICE COMING DOWN ANYTIME SOON, thats the really scary part.

It's not the gas prices that are ridiculous... it's the fact that most people continue to pay what the market will bear. The oil companies are raking in record profits every quarter. I heard a report on the news the other day that it costs $1.60 for the Arabs to get a barrel of oil out of the ground. So you can bet your sweet crude that someone's making a shitpot of money.

So just continue to fill up your SUV's and your BMW's and Lexus' that require Premium gasoline and be prepared for $100 a barrel by the end of the year and $5.00 a gallon at the pump.

Since I attended Cybernext in SD in June, I've only put $15.00 in my truck and I only drive it when I absolutely need to. Otherwise, I do my shopping online and let someone else wait in line at the pumps.

I just returned from a trip and the highest I paid was $2.89. My gas bill for the trip was probably well over $300.00.

exactly!
i just saw on 20/20 last night that Exxon made BILLIONS in PROFIT since this time last year. BILLIONS OF *PROFIT*!! (so did BP, but not as much as Exxon did).

come on guys, wake up & start doin something about it! protest by not filling up to go "crusiing" or something. every little bit helps

Gasoline is nowhere near an "all-time high".

Some people are just naive.

I'm currently visiting SoCal this weekend. I just paid $3.03 for a gallon of gas in San Diego.

You know what - that's fine. I wish they would double the price of gas. It would keep most of the idiots off the road.

The initial shock of personal gas prices going over 3 bucks a gallon doesn't bother me much...

BUT what DOES concern me more is how the gas hike will start significantly effecting all other areas of industry and pricing.

Oil prices have doubled in the last year. Currently at about $67 a barrel. Here are some historical prices to compare it to...check out since 9/11...and keep in mind the current is the top of the chart. http://www.wtrg.com/oil_graphs/oilprice1947.gif

Last week it went up almost 2% a day.

Adjust for inflation and look at energy costs as a percentage of GDP. Oil and gas is relatively cheap at the current levels and will not drag the overall economy.

The dollar amount means nothing unless it is a true dollar amount adjusted for inflation.

That chart is fucking useless because it is not adjusted for inflation. In real dollars oil was over $90 a barrel in the 1980s.

I'm glad I got myself a 2005 Honda Civic even with all the high gas prices only costs me $16-$20 to fill up. My old SUV would have been in the 60-70's by now.

It IS adjusted for inflation, notice at the top is says in '2004 dollars'. If you have a better graph, show us.

im trying to convince him to trade in his truck for a decent lookin car but hes a big man (like a football kinda big) so most cars look like hes in a clown car LOL

theres a few really decent lookin cars that would fit him just fine though, and that would save us a shit load of cash on gas. but trying to convince a man to give up his truck for a car (especially when hes the most stubborn man on earth) is damn near impossible lol

Yea I'm the same way (stubborn that is) but after spending about ~$450 in one month on gas alone I had to get something different. Gas has gone up about 37 cents a gallon since I traded it in so I can only imagine how much it would cost me now.

The problem is lack of refining capacity. There are very few refineries in North America. Companies who own refineries have a right to profit. It is supply and demand. The government should allow new refineries if they want to remedy the situation.

So just continue to fill up your SUV's and your BMW's and Lexus' that require Premium gasoline and be prepared for $100 a barrel by the end of the year and $5.00 a gallon at the pump.

Since I attended Cybernext in SD in June, I've only put $15.00 in my truck and I only drive it when I absolutely need to. Otherwise, I do my shopping online and let someone else wait in line at the pumps.
I'm willing to bet the barrel cost will be around the $90-$100 mark by the end of the year if things keep going like this, and don't even wanna think what will happen if the US decides to attack Iran

I read recently that the U.S was studying the possibility of not buying any more oil from my country (Venezuela). I can only imagine what that would do for gas prices in the U.S,so I`m thinking it might never happen.
Although I`ve always thought the U.S needs to stop financing Chavez and his so-called "revolution"...the guy is stirring up trouble all over Latin America with his "anti-imperialism" crap.

If you're interested in real numbers and graphs direct from the Dept of Energy, take a look here. It's updated regularly and has the REAL numbers.
