LOL @ the banter comment btw. Come back when you have something real to try and insult me on.
I'm not the one making the accusations, I have nothing to back up.


You forgot one part of the equation. OPEC controls the supply, they could increase supply by something as small as .5mil barrells a day and the increased supply would drop the oil price somewhere in the area of $6.00 a barrell. That in turn would drop gas prices about $0.30 a gallon.
