the illusion about where oil comes from or how much is in reserve effecting prices has only shown up since the advent of gasoline diluted with ethanol. they get to put out an inferior product, that you have to buy more of because of decreased economy, at a larger margain, all because you have no choice.
gas prices are an economic shell game that special interest groups and uninformed politicians use to wreck our wallets.

Maybe so but what about the people that invest in oil futures? They help jack up prices too. We could go back and forth all day long and try to figure out why prices are going up. The fact is, regardless of the reasons, people like me and you are getting screwed.
