Gas ? wayy too much !?

Question

Do you think Gas i way to much.

i live in south FL & Gas is like $5 dollars.

thats alot !

Do you Gas will go up 10 dollars by this year?

Answer 1

Its $4.19 here in southern NY. I hope it doesn't go to 10, my parents are freaking out enough at 4 dollars a gallon, and i dont blame them

Answer 2

I live in Cali... and gas literally is $5/gallon. And I drive a car that requires premium so that alone is an extra $0.30 a gallon! Ten dollars I think will be the price by next summer. I think at the rate our economy is going, we're looking at another Great Depression within ten years. No one has money and the gap between higher and lower classes is widening to astronomical beliefs!

Answer 3

$5 dollars is high but you probably get paid more per hour at most jobs down there so your probably better off then most....    Gas is $4.26 here and living off dirt for a job,$5.75 per hour minimum wage....  If that....

Answer 4

its GOING TO GO UP WITH OUT A DOUBT GET A BIKE OR OTHER TRANSPORTATION CHEAPER IN THE LONG RUN !

Answer 5

My fingers are crossed that it won't, but I'm nervous.

Answer 6

No dude.

I don't think it will go up that high by the end of the year.

I think Americans should be thankful that they are not in countries like Europe where gas is actually ten dollars.

Try being a european for a day!

Answer 7

No, gas should not hit $10 this year, if anything the highest we should see this year is over $6. If you drive under 65 miles per hour your more likely to save your gas, I have a 6 cylinder and i fill it up once every 2 weeks, im driving anywhere from 20-55 miles per hour.

Answer 8

I live in IL it is about $4.15 right now. I think by Holiday season we will be paying at least $5. I thnk once we get a president who doesn't own oil it will go down a little bit.

Answer 9

I live in FL too and the cheapest one is already $4.07 so I have my fingers crossed that it won't keep going up.

Answer 10

It will keep going up until the country takes a stand and says ENOUGH!  Everyone must write to their senators and congress reps, and stop spending money on everything but gas and food.  When the economy comes to a standstill, they will do something about gas prices.

Answer 11

Oil just went to $140.00 a barrell. Watch the price of gas climb..

Answer 12

First of all, Gas will get higher, but not $10 by the end of the year.

As for Europe, it's not as bad as it used to be compared to us. When comparing gas prices, you must remember that they are using a different currency and unit of measurement.

1 gallon= 3.7 liters

$1= 0.63 Euros.

Granted, gas prices in Europe are higher, however, they have much more highly developed public transportation. Also, everything is closer together. That means that we are driving more and longer than our European counterparts so high prices hurt us more. In addition to that, our prices have been traditionally lower. It is not necessarily the high price as it is the rapid increase in price compared to everything else. Less than 10 years ago, gas was less than $1.40 and now it's more than $4. Even still, there is the reasoning why the prices are high. In Europe, much of what is payed is taxes that eventually come back to the consumer in the way of schools, roads, hospitals and so on. Here, all that money goes to pad the bank accounts of the oil executives.
