The different blends that the government requires also jacks up the price. $3.69 here is Douglasville Ga. It hurts but with no Jeep payment not as bad. The price of gas also jacks up everything else we buy so that is another hit to the wallet.

Brother whether there is extra production capacity in the middle east is not as relevant as you think because oil from mid east is shipped so what you need to know is shipping capacity not production capacity. I know this from experience not because of any hope and change.
The reason we drill farther out to sea is because we can and second because most of North America is not accessible to drilling due to government regulations just go to the Virginia coast and you are looking at massive potential production basin for oil that I am not allowed to explore for because of government.

I also read Matthew Simmons, author Twilight in the Desert, is now dead... I remember his commentaries during the BP spill.
High gas prices with abundant supply are microscopic compared to high gas prices with low supply.
If you've experienced the latter you know what I mean. If you haven't, hope you never will.
