One would think a Navy trained Sonar man would be able to do simple mathematics. Average price in the U.S. is $2.55 cents as of August 15th, 2005.

I think I pay more for everything now than I did more than a year ago - from groceries to water to electricity

why would I not pay more for gasoline?

Can we all step back for a moment and let Swager answer Ripsnort's valid question?

I'm sincerely interested to hear why and how the next Republican president would generate higher gas prices and the next Democrat president would be able to cause gas prices to dip sharply lower.

Swager, please do enlighten us.

Hmmmmmmmm...

We need an update.   Rip, will you do the honors since you seem to be so good at numbers.

Give us the average price of gas, since the $3.40 barrier has already been surpassed in many areas.

Inflation won't cause gas to just about triple in about 7 years.

It's something else, like getting the old screw job from OPEC. Bush it's not.

but by the same token Rip, "I am here from the Oil Industry and I'm here to help you"

There is a line that is being walked and in some cases its damn fine between what is free market driven and what is profiteering.

Seagoon....dont mind Swager.  He is just bumping up an old stupid topic he started over a year ago.  Its not like he has any psychic abilities or anything.  Any mindless liberal could have predicted gas prices would go up....especially in the aftermath of a hurricane.  Especially a hurricane that was caused by Bush and his cronies by not signing the Kyoto agreement or whatever its called.  :rolleyes:

Wow Rip, great reply.  I honestly expected some logical answer filled with statistical data proving my perdiction misleading.

Instead I get an lame insult based on the fact I served in the military.  That is actually a response I would expect from a 12 year old or some other reigning member of this community, but not from one such as you.

I know your next comment would probably be based on the fact your initial reply is an attempt to focus on your target audience. Indicating that my intelligence is that of a 12 year old and this would free you of, in the eyes of your AH peers, a righteous answer.

So please do bless us with a more analytical answer for if I was able to perdict a devistating hurricane when I first posted this thread with my psychic abilities, I would be a rich man.

Sling, you're right. I first posted this over a year ago.  So how would I know about an increase of gas prices brought on by  a hurri.........Oh forget it, you're not worth the effort.

Whoops!  IMHO it depends on who gets elected.

Bush elected:  $3.40 a gallon

Democrat elected:  $1.69 a galllon.


So you blame the price of gas in the US on a Republican president?

I blame the price of gas on left leaning politicians that have nuetered the American oil industry to the point that we cannot supplement lost gasoline production.

How do you feel about that. I'd love to hear/read your solution.
