Obamacare luxury health insurance policy mandate costs don't help.
A thread title about saudi oil, an OP about saudi oil, but let's also blame high oil prices on Obamacare which is totally irrelevant You must be a Republican

Gas prices have increased a little around certain parts of the country due to a refinery problem in the Midwest. Overall, the price of crude is down and suppliers have started producing the cheaper winter blend gasoline - gas prices will be lower soon.

When (if) Iran is allowed to sell oil on the open market it will increase supply and price will fall further.

We should be so lucky. It's $3.30 here, it hasn't been under $3 since May. At least the progressive in the governors office here hasn't managed to get his new $1/gallon tax pushed through yet.

I'd like to take this moment to blame the gas prices on the Kenyan Muslim POTUS. And the disappearance of Malaysian MH-370.

Surely you can provide evidence to prove that.

No, they are not, and no, they don't need oil at $106/barrel to "break even."

Apparently, ROI on oil is too complicated for many people.

The US doesn't use oil for electrical energy production.
