4) the oil companies know the future is NOT oil, and they are going to soak up as much profits as they can. see http://www.actionsalvage.com/H2O.asp. they are already making H2O motors. The US Govt already contracted for 4 Humvees to be made with this (or similar) technology.
I agree.

its prob because too many people voted for dumb ass republican Bush, who makes tons of money on oil, and defense stock. and he has war and money on his mind 24/7.
i hear gas in Iraq is only $0.50 a gallon.

WHATA GOING ON, AND I DRIVE A GAS GUZZLER......I HATE IT :scared:
(a) too much money chasing too few goods, (b) crude is a necessity not a luxery, (c) politcal uncertainty in region of production leading speculators to have gone "long" on future contracts pushing "at the pump " prices up b/c hedge costs have gone up, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc..........oil supply is dictated by a cartel, basically setting prices, subject to demand. I view it the way I view people on here talking about 1 $40 blue zoo polyp.....if you don't have a demand there wouln't be a supply.

I have been happy as hell the past week or so! I GLADLY paid $2.76 yesterday to fill up the Sport Trac. I am sure missing my accord now though (used to get over 30 mpg - now I am lucky to get 17), but I wouldnt trade my truck in for anything....except maybe a Trans Am WS6.

Iraq used to produce around 15 percent of the worlds oil reserves...good oil too...only third behind Sadia Arabia and Iran....Now those 2 Countries can easily conrtol the prices...And they and the corperations are getting rich and loveing it.......they may get some more flowing from Iraq by election time.....
