Answer 1

Answer 2

We have no choice-NOW. But in the future if we stay focused on electric cars, hybrid cars and better driving habits, gas will be cheaper and we will rely less on foreign oil.

Answer 3

That is how the oil companies make a huge profits every quarter, everytime someone sneezes up goes the oil, We have to keep maccain and bush in the upper 5 percentage  rate of the wage  earners. lol.

Answer 4

Its Called our own Choice by who we vote into office, those we vote isn are who is holding us back from drilling in our own country, so we blaime  our government and  and leader for their Dom Stupidity! And Our own!!

Answer 5

Soon the public will have to demand changes because people are now unable to afford to make it to work! Sales not only of oil products but across the board are flat! No one has any money left that is discretionary! Can you imagine they are doing this purposely during an election year! Can it get anymore insane? This is further proof the elections don't matter anymore!

Answer 6

The price of oil will continue to s***w us as long as we allow ourselves to be dependent on foreign oil. As long as we insist on electing democrats and republicans who are out to destroy America, we will continue to be at the mercy of the rich corporations who own them.

Answer 7

It's not idiotic, if you are in business you have to try to be aware of changing conditions that may affect your business.

If you are in the oil trading business and storms are likely to affect oil production in the gulf or elsewhere you are going to try to ensure that you can meet your customers needs, as everyone in the same business is scrambling to do likewise the price will rise.  

Answer 8
