Welcome to the forum, old timer.
$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', 't')his is such an outrage that oil and gas prices are still in the 2.00$ range? why arent they going down
Gasoline is not going down in price because we use too much, and the last new refinery in the US was built in 1976 or something, so there is only so much around. There has to be a way to decide who gets it and who does not. So, the price goes up, and the ones who can afford it will get it.
$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', 'w')hat is are governmeny doing about it
The government is not going to do anything about it. For one thing, they can't. It's all supply and demand. For another thing, even if they could, they wouldn't because you elected a lot of oilmen to run the place, and when you elect some oil men, you are going to get higher prices for oil.
