Yet now that oil has finally corrected somewhat gas prices are flat. Aside from criminal gouching what explains this and can it be fixed
What is the reason for gas prices to be so high?
Plain White T’s Fan asked:
Is it because of the war in Iraq? Or just because the companies can make them pricey? Or maybe President Bush? Please explain. My mom and I were driving to get some gas today and she was complaining about the prices. Help please!
Is the world really running out of gas? I am only 13, so please try to break the scary big words down for me. Will we have to walk or use bikes if we run out of gas?

Who is the main culprit behind high gas prices?
ann h asked:
Do you ever wonder how the cook at Mcdonalds, or the clerk at Walgreens are even able to get to work everyday with gas prices being so exhorbitant ? Why are gas prices over a dollar more than they were a year ago? Who do you think is the main culprit behind these exhorbitant prices? Opec, the Oil Companies, the Bush adminstration?

What is America really going to do about these gas prices?
Nicole asked:
Seriously, isn’t it eventually going to get to the point where our entire economy will just fall apart if gas prices keep rising the way they are? What is the future plan? I worry every time I have to hit the pump and it takes out a huge chunk of my paycheck. Some people probably can’t even afford to drive to work any more! And now these insane fees for luggage on airlines. I know I’m not the only one hurting. When will the madness end and how?
