WTF is up with gas prices?, How much are you paying? Options

[chosen1]

In Chicago, gas just spiked 20 cents. The cheapest I've seen is $2.45 for reg, $2.55 for super (which is what I put in my car) and $2.65 for premium. And usually, I drive 15 minutes to Indiana and pay 20 cents less, but now it's only 3 cents cheaper. It's not even worth burning the gas to drive there anymore. On top of that, I drive a truck for a living and the price of diesel is $2.65 which makes it almost impossible to make any money so all the employees at my company are going on strike on Monday so that we can get paid more for delivering loads. This is crazy!!! It's only the beginning of spring and prices are getting higher. What's going to happen by mid-summer? I heard in Cali they are already paying close to $3.50.

in all honesty i think our gas prices are paying for the war.

it rose so fast all of the sudden that it makes sense that we are paying for the war with higher gas prices.

I read in USA today Today that the prices will continue to rise b/c china is starting to develop a lot more and will need more oil for everything. THis is not good for any country b/c we are running out of oil and if the biggest populated country starts to use 10x what they used to, oil will run out very very quick

u gotta remeber one of china's biggest oil suppliers is sudan and we got a bann on there oil so they get supplies that we don't.

There is enough oil to last quite a while, there are huge reserves in alaska. The running out of oil is just hype, that americans like all the rest of the hype seem to buy into. If an oil shortage was such a threat don't you think that huge companies like UPS, airline companies would be more worried about oil shortages than anyone else?

jets don't use high octane oil only prop planes do so they don't need to worry. As for running out of oil yeah eventualy we will but the problem isn't because of china or the war its because the companies that run the oil industry decided to leave their cap the same so they aren't increasing supply as demand goes up. Sorta screwed here because there is nothing to force them to drill for more oil and this way they make more money.
