It's about $2.30 a gallon here in TX. Still a bargain compared to the $3.60 a gallon a few years back under Obama.

The higher the price the more we conserve. It needs to be around $4.00 a gallon.

Better economy more oil consumption, they do go together. Now if oil spikes and raises gas prices to 4 or 5 dollars a gallon that is when we will have problems. The low oil prices of a few years ago were devastating to our domestic industry. A bit higher is a good thing for our domestic producers and the jobs they create.

What EXACTLY has Trump done to cause it to rise?

Nice misleading topic, crude was around $53 when obama left office. It has risen ~15% under Trump, hardly double

The POTUS removed the restriction on exporting oil and nat. gas. POTUS has directly caused the price to go up.
