oil prices are the way they are due to speculation. People on wall street sell a future in oil at $xx amount, then say a hurricane is suppose to hit withing a week. Well that future just went to $xxx amount because supply is going to be down after it hits. But we pay more before it hits. Stupid.
Look at other countries in the world and see how much they pay, it will sicken you. Only a few others pay as much as we do
