Answer 1

We have been dooped the gas prices aren't going up there isn't a shortage of oil. The reason it appears that gas is going up, it's actually because the dollar is falling. The value of the dollar is an will continue to fall because there isn't any tangible substance's behind it that will hold its value. If There was gold or silver backing it the dollar will maintain. If you study the economy you will see that every time they incorporate this new money the value goes down. Look at the economy like soup. The more counterfeit money is printed, it just like adding water to the soup. The more water the weaker the soup get's and that is reflected in this economy.

Answer 2

inflation!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 3

just wait you will be asking why it is 10 dollars a gallon!! we all ask it!!!

Answer 4

Have you ever heard of the laws of Supply and Demand? As Supply goes down, and Demand goes up, Price increases.

But it's really the Democrats in Congress who are restricting Americans to do themselves a favor by mining our own oil!!!!

Answer 5

Since this isn't a question...

WOOT, 2 Points!

Answer 6

Yes, probably.  

It all goes back to the same rich elitists.  They are behind all of this country's problems.

Answer 7

It's a no brain er, they bring us to our knees and then they come along to offer a solution and make us do what they want. this year it's Bush leading the parade before him Clinton. etc. etc. etc.so keep voting that party line you'll do just fine. WOW!  by the way watched the whole thing, try to keep an open mind, unlike others.

Answer 8

Watched the entire thing.  It was good, made sense, and most of all, the speaker elaborated on what needed to be elaborated on - the manufacturing of an oil crisis.

Answer 9

cause we are running out of gas!

Answer 10

i had no idea that that was the situation while this may have been set in motion a number of years ago i still think that the current administrations spending was atrocious how is that type of spending not criminal?

Answer 11

Ya know i really wouldnt deny it, but i never wouldve thought that.

Thats even better reason we as a country should rid ourselves of the problem of crude oil. Let's work to legalize cannibus, so we can use hemp as oil. Takes 6 million years to mature oil, takes 6 months to grow cannibus.

Answer 12

Gas is so high because speculators bid on what they think the cost of gas should be during the next year based on world events.  They then buy this gas at the speculated price by contract, having the barrels delivered on demand.  The gas pump stations watch the speculators and match the price at the pumps to match the speculated price.  If these companies intent was to make you pay more for gas, they simply just bid much higher than it really should be.  Congress is trying to make a new law (bad idea we have too many as it is) to limit the amount of businesses that can buy these barrels.  Basically the law will be if you buy them, you store them.  So it will push all of the little guys out and leave it to the top 10% of these companies to do as they please with the gas prices.  BTW these are already the companies that are bidding the highest price because they bid on the most oil, then they send it to a refinery that adds a charge on it, then they send to the pumps that add a state tax and a gas station profit amount onto that.  Guess what?  the government taxes it between every sale between the businesses.  That is why gas is so much.  Congress limiting this to a few of the already biggest businesses while making the little ones buy per day, will squeeze out the little guys which whether or not you notice is going on with every business avenue that there is.  No more mom and pop stores.  Isn't the government supposed to break up businesses if they get too big and powerful.  Not ensure that there is no competition?  We seriously need to wake up and pay attention to what is already going on,  If we don't stop it now, then we will be forced to fight for our freedom again.  This time without plenty of food growing in the non existent forests and the corporate farms growing corn for ethanol so the government can profit but we have to pay higher for food because now we import it.  What would you do to take over the most powerful country in the world?  Take it's money (economy collapsing whether you want to admitt it or not), control it's supply of food, water, energy, start making laws to use the military against thier own people, try to take thier guns.  All in the illusion that keeping anything centralized is a good thing.  It is the worst thing imagnable.  Think about it, how much information was lost in the fires that burned down the library of Alexander.  What would happen if our water plants stopped working and we had no money for the $4.00/gal gas that powers the trucks to bring the water to us.  We would then have to BEG for the help of the rich.  Guess what then, we will help but you have to do exactly as I say.  Look at lousiana.  They were testing how far along in the phase we were.  Please wake up world, we are at war with our own businesses but they tell you the people who say that are crazy.  WHY HAS NO ONE BEEN SUED FOR SLANDER FOR ALL OF THE DOCUMENTARIES THAT COME OUT?????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Why do they spend the money DEBUNKING it or the time to call people crazy or ill with a "truth" virus.  Why do they not spend the money to sue these people and make money making these people stop saying what they are saying if it isn't true?  Ask yourself that.

Answer 13

i could not watch it all, he is a terrible speaker.

i kept praying for him to stop beating around the bush by saying " im going to tell you who it is, im not beating around the bush".

after the 100th time i gave up.

the price of oil is set , it is not determined by supply and demand. the price is supported by the government because they all own oil company stocks.

the easy solution is for the public to get involved. recall every politician that owns oil company stocks.

make it illegal for a politician to own oil company stock. but, no one wants to get involved.

they all want to say it is supply and demand. even though they know your profits can not go up when your cost of material goes up.

if the cost of plastic a water bottle making company buys goes from 1.00 a bottle to 5.00 a bottle, their profit does not skyrocket .

if this fuzzy economics really worked, bill gates would have made his money by selling less software, not more.

hold back production of windows 3.1, do not meet demand, sell the software for one million bucks apiece, and retire. no need to make more operating systems.

you could buy a store, only stock half the bottled water you need, blame it on a shortage and make so much money you could retire the next day.

but of course, in the real world, everybody knows you would make less money if you sold less, or your costs went up.

everybody just wants to line up and wait for the slaughter.

Answer 14

After he said god, I lost interest but kept listening for a little longer but got tired of his nonstop rambling. He dousnt just get to the point, he just teases you with a tiny bit of information.  They do that on purpose to get you to buy something.

Answer 15

Its cause of Inflation. Natural Disasters, for example Katrina, which 8 Oil Refinerys were lost. The Suadi's are putting higher prices, and just the Fact that Oil is limited. The Military needs oil. America downs over a million Barrels a day. Also the United States is trying to slowly pull out with out hurting the Economy and Oil prices, to try and find different fuel Alternatives.

Answer 16

Scary.  True?....who knows.  But I've known for fact for a long time that the World Bank is involved.  I wonder what that date is he was talking about when Iran will flood the market with cheap oil thereby collapsing the American dollar.  If that is the case, then Iran must be taken out.  People just don't understand that the free flow of oil MUST be fought for.

Answer 17

this is why HE believes it is.  he offered no proof, just his say so.   it's 4-5/gal because we as a country are willing to pay it
