We Americans are a little stupid when it comes to prices . We buy Poland Spring for a dollar twenty five , water thats the same as the water that you get out of the tap and the plastic bottle goes into the garbage then sits in a dump site for 100's of years. If you really want to get the prices down DON'T drive . If every american who drives boycott the gas station and don't drive for the days that they are off (weekends) then the prices would go down . And for the the high price of Oil and other Commadites stop giving Goldman Sachs and other firms money to buy futures and drive the prices up . Only people in the industry should buy there futures on margin not speculators .

Pulling copper out of a street lamp is not a great way to pay for gas either.

GREEDY Speculators destroyed our housing market, roller - coastered the stock market, now they are destroying the commodity markets. All in the name of GREED. Our present government believes in "less government" and this is what sets in - GREED. These companies could care less about a descent profit. No, they are creating these short-term excessive profits, that will eventually destroy the ability for the average citizen to function properly. "GREED IS GOOD" is their motto.

if law makers make it more strict for those driving up before they help do something with the uncontrollable rise in price, we know how much our law makers are on our side. People cant afford food for their family, so it serves these oil companies right that people are taking what they need. With over 100 billion in profits, these oil companies can afford hundreds of drive offs.
