When the economy is revving up, demand for fuel comes in advance.  Gas prices plummeted in late 2008/2009 because the economy was in the shitter and there was no demand.

So are you suggesting the economy is "revving up" (it is not) and there is hight demand for gasoline right now?

Is that what you're trying to say?

By the way, It is estimated that a $.10 increase in the price of gasoline results in a decline of about $11.74 billion in personal income.

Welcome to the age of Obama, where your standard of living is crappier.

Nancy Pelosi 2008:

“This is a scam of the greatest magnitude,” says Speaker Pelosi.

Rising gas prices affect groups like the Boys and Girls Club that is cutting programs to save costs, a small businessman who finds himself being priced out of competition or a caregiver who can’t afford gas to get to clients.

And for other Meals on Wheels programs around the bay, hikes in fuel costs have meant fewer deliveries. They can’t find volunteers who can afford to fill their tanks.

Prices at the pump are a pain for all of us, but Speaker Pelosi is accusing President Bush of policies that have driven up the prices, and says she has a solution to bring prices down immediately,

“Mr. President, do not fill the strategic petroleum reserve with oil at record highs. Instead, take out the oil that we brought at a lower price to bring down the price of oil, to reduce the price at the pump,” says Speaker Pelosi.

====================

I guess some people do believe that the President controls gas prices!
