More like "Don't buy gas if you don't need it, but support the american economy and buy a giant SUV. It is your American duty."

He said that so that people would not run out and buy gas and create shortages in the short term that would drive prices up. You can bet your ass that the oil companies are not going to allow prices to come down after they have gone up to $3 or $3.50 a gallon. If everyone just runs right out and buys gas and causes all of the stations to run out of fuel, the remaining stations that have gas will raise their prices due to the economic laws of supply and demand. The higher the demand and the lower the supply, the more 'valuable' the commodity.

One thing that pisses me off about this situation is that here in CA it is against state law to sell gasoline that has not been refined here in CA. So, the shortages of oil and gas on the Gulf Coast should not affect our prices... but apparently the oil companies don't see it that way. We've had a $0.25 increase per gallon since Monday, even though we don't get ANY of our gas and oil from the Gulf Coast.

Why is there never a captian obvious pic around when you need one?

Why is gas sooo expensive? I mean seriously, you have two less States using it, right? I would think that would make things cheaper. The Gulf of Mexico oil is only 7% of what we use. I sure Mississippi and Louisana folks make up that 7% not using.

Try 30% when you consider all refineries, wells, and shipping ports where the oil freighters and barges come in..
