Is OPEC finnally getting what it deserves !?

Question

Who's ever on top of it -owns it- that I understand..but hey -give me a break !

US= $ 4.00 +/ Gal. for Reg. gas

UK= $ 7.00+/ Gal. for Reg. gas

Dnmrk = $ 10.00+/ Gal.for Reg. gas

Saudi Ar.= .47 cents...YES- .4 7 C E N T S ! /Gal. for Reg.gas.

It's being reported that gas pumping in America over the Memorial Wknd. was LACKLUSTER at best- THERE YOU GO OPEC- stick that where it doesn't shine !!

Answer 1

I agree, and $10 per gallon in the UK, with Diesel nearing $11 a gallon. It's great out here in Dubai, costs next to nothing to fill up my Mazda 6 from empty (approx $6.20 will fill my car)...and less when I go to Saudi (approx $5 to fill the motor). On the flipside, some of the roads are bloody dire, although I wouldn't say they were as bad as roads in the UK which consist of:

Potholes

Huge speed humps which kill joints, shock absorbers and suspension

Dirt tracks

Various hazards such as massive lakes, which can cause your car to "fly" off the road (and into somthing/ someone else)

Answer 2

Do you think they care if gas pumping was "lackluster"?  They're still making money.  They know we're dependent on oil and we're going to use it.  A 0.5% decrease in demand isn't going to hurt them.
