We all know that gas prices are obnoxiously high. And I can't help but think to myself WHY. Why are the gas prices so high right now? (Actually for like the last 5 years) I get that oil is not renewable and we will use it up eventually. I just don't get what makes the price go from $3.86 to $4.08 for no reason I can think of.
I'm not one to really believe in conspiracy's or anything to the nature of, but there has to be something going on with oil. Someone out there is making TONS and TONS of money and not much is really explained to me.

Supply, demand, competition, and drilling costs all go towards determining the price.

He thinks there is something extra though. Something just isn't right if gas prices are like this, and it's something we don't know about.

Gas is an essential. Because its non renewable, its price can be manipulated & altered to take as much money from the public a possible

Look at it this way.
If all the companys agree to make gas higher they all make more money.
Pretty easy more them

Completely wrong. They are rising because the value of the dollar is going down. From 2006 - 2010 a gallon of gas in US Dollars rose 300%, a gallon in Euros rose 200%, a gallon in Gold/Silver it stayed the same.

Not completely wrong if there was no demand for it then it would be worthless.If there was a very high supply then the prices would go down because the supply is high.
