It's hard on our wallets but it's good for families in places like Texas where higher oil prices mean work.

lets see, summer driving season is upon us, as well as opec cutting production, among other economic issues, and of course gas prices are going to rise. they will probably hit an average of about $3.50 a gallon this summer before coming back down to around $2.40 a gallon in the fall. we see this cycle every year for the last 50 years or so.

To hell with Texas. They certainly don’t care about the misfortunes of non Texans.

I’m more than willing to pay more to help all Americans, but not just for the benefit of oil production States. Screw them.

It’s early April, and huge portions of this country were freezing just days ago. What summer?

Why didn’t gas hit $3.50 last year if that’s true?

Gasoline is dirt cheap. I don’t even look at the price when I fill up.

Didn’t think I’d see $3 buck gas this year. And don’t tell me about supply and demand because demand is no crazier now than it was last year. Save it.

So someone tell me what’s going on?
They have been talking about it in my neck of the woods for a couple of weeks at least........

Of course it is going up. Trump is in charge. Will the same people who blamed Obama last time it was up, blame Trump now? I highly doubt it.
