Answer 1

CERTAINLY OIL PRICES WILL CONTINUE TO RISE. ONE TINY REASON IS INFLATION; EVERYTHING CONTINUES TO GO UP. BUT THE MAIN REASON IS OUR PERVASIVE GREED. OUR NATION IS FOUNDED ON THE PRECEPT OF 'MAKING IT' REGARDLESS OF WHAT IT TAKES OR WHOMEVER IT HURTS. WE ARE NO LONGER A NATION, OR WORLD, OF MORAL CERTITUDE. THE ENGLISH IN PARTICULAR SPREAD THE IDEA OF BEING FREE FROM BONDAGE. WE, HOWEVER, HAVE SPREAD THE SEEDS OF IMMORALITY, GREED, AND CORRUPTION. AND THE WORLD HAS MORE FROM US THAN ANY OTHER COUNTRY.

Answer 2

Answer 3

Oil prices are going up whether there are hurricanes or not.  The oil companies are making record profits and topping their own records each year.  In addition, taxpayers are subsidizing them.

"Bush Rejects Calls for Tax on Oil Profits

WASHINGTON -- President Bush said Friday that taxing enormous oil industry profits is not the way to calm Americans' anxieties about pain at the gas pump, and that his "inclination and instincts" are that major oil companies are not intentionally overcharging drivers.

Bush's remarks suggested the former Texas oilman is unlikely to take harsh action against oil companies despite public anger about the rising cost of fuel. Gasoline is averaging $2.92 a gallon across the country, up 69 cents from a year ago, according to AAA's daily fuel gauge report."

Answer 4

The liberals want oil prices to go up because less driving is better for the environment. So don't expect anything to stop them from going up.

Answer 5

Haha, you expect them to go down?
