Gas falls below $3.90 a gallon - Larry T - 08-01-2008
Why if the average price of gas in the US is less than $3.90 are we paying $4.50??? Do we have anyone in government not taking gas co. money?? Or are they asleep or don't care? I thought a law was pasted to stop this type of ripoff.

I think it costs a little more to ship the stuff here....
last time I checked, it was about the same price here as San Diego.

A very interesting piece of information can be found at the gasprices dot com websites. They have charts that plot gas prices for up to 6 years. I just looked at one chart and used Hawaii compared to the US Average, compared to Washington D.C., and also added the crude oil prices into the chart. The US Average and D.C, were almost mirror images (same for just about any mainland area). Hawaii sort of followed the trend but with such rapid spikes and dips that had it been an EKG, you would be in ICU. And, for some reason, there were big disconnects between raising and falling crude prices compared to gasoline prices. Take a look, it is interesting.[
]Now if only there was a website that tracks Hawaii's rising fuel cost campared to campaign contributions......

Oil's down to 120, still a lot, but falling. Reinstate drilling (after Govt Shutdown)on expiration of ban date, 1 Oct. Reup equipment, make first substantial strike and we'll be buying back the SUVs.

if anyone thinks allowing more drilling for the oil companies is going to reduce our gas prices, they are dreaming

If drilling were to be allowed everywhere tomorrow, the futures price would drive down the current price of oil overnight. Even if there were a reduction in available stocks.
If Israel attacked Iran, prices would double over night due to speculation of uncertain supply.
Even if there were a raise in available stocks.
If it were announced that the U.S. was going to build 20 nuclear plants, natural gas and coal futures would drop with in an hour of the announcement.
That’s the way it works
Just a few years ago gasoline was $1.00/ gal , remember that 40 cents of that was tax.
That's just the facts!
