With Obama and this administration's war on domestically produced energy, we can only imagine how much higher energy prices will go if this hostile regime stays in office.

US has about the cheapest gas in the world, with record drilling in almost ever state.

T330: To correct your vague statement, as much as I hate to, Obama has shutdown the permit process for offshore and federal lands. He has no control over private drilling, so naturally, they have increased production. If Bush were in office we would have a glut of oil, sending the price in a free fall. Thanks for an attempt at clearing that up.

Heres a recent ranking of gasoline prices by country: http://bloom.bg/Rx1gJn. The high prices in many places are more influenced by taxes than by the fuel cost.

We already have a glut of oil, Cushing is busting at the seams, The US has become a net exporter of refined products, gasoline, diesel etc. We produce more than we consume. Oil is cheaper here because it is partially stranded, otherwise WTI pricing would be much closer to Brent pricing. We can sell refined products into the international market, principally Latin America. That keeps prices from falling a lot here.

Yeah, and bubble blowin Ben and his QE stun gun is going to give the hoar's another round of dollar debauchery?
Get over yourselves!

The struggling working men / women in this country are dying under the criminal in chief and immoral thief, Barry Obama!

This progressive / quasi socialist administration will go down in history as the most corrupt and UN American ever!

May the good lord allow the people to finally open their eyes and see just how the law of divide and conquer has put brother against brother to the detriment of the republic!

God Bless The Virtuous

Hawaiians sure have to pay a lot.
On the other hand, they do get to live in Hawaii.
PS You people posting here who think gas prices have anything to do with Romney or Obama are just weird. And ignorant, too.
God bless us liberals.

Higher gas prices = less driving = less miles on cars = longer life for cars = less need for new cars = more competition between car manufacturers for sales = lower prices = lower profits = bail out GM again.
