NO, prices will be going back up for gas.
Why, corn just went over $7 and is going up. $7 is twice the Avg price.

corn=ethanol

I was surprised to see the price of gas fall as it to has to be ultra low sulfur like diesel fuel is starting this summer.

It bottomed out in SE Pa at $3.29 a gallon and now is $3.39. Looking forward to increased ethanol costs with the drought/ corn crop failure, I don't think you're going to see it get any lower. I think we'll get lucky with the absence of Gulf hurricanes so they can't use that as an excuse to gouge us.

Considering all the goons were literally campaigning starting six months after Duhbya's 2nd term started, we should have had cheap gas for a long time before Obammy got elected...

Sounds nice in theory, though.
