Why Are Gas Prices So High?

How much higher are the gas prices going to go?

Do you know when the gas prices will start to drop and when the economy will start doing good like it was a couple years ago. I heard that gas is going to be $6 per gallon in the middle of July. Soon everybody will be starting to drive hybrids around. Why can't the president do something to stop the prices from going up?

1. Gas prices will not drop, at least not much. We need to become less dependent on petroleum products. Many wells in the Middle East are starting to pump out water, which means that they are running low. Petroleum is NOT a renewable resource, but solar power and hydrogen is. Hydrogen can be separated out of water, and the main byproduct of using it as fuel is water. George Bush does not WANT to control gasoline prices since he has a major stake in big oil. The economy will become better when we have an intelligent, caring person in the White House. Obama '08
2. A news report I saw last week on a major station said $15 a gallon.
3. Go to the closest window in your room & look up at the Sky... -THAT's how "high" gas prices will eventually go... The ONLY People who decide the Price of Gas- is US. And with More & MORE people being born in the World that need gas to drive THEIR cars around- that "Demand" will Only keep pushing the Price HIGHER... So if YOU want to pay LESS for Gas- you're just going to have to find ways to use LESS of it... You- & ALL the REST of Us.........
4. Who knows, it went down $.02 today where I live so maybe there is hope. Also oil went down several dollars today. It'll probably go right back up tomorrow.
5. you do something, don't wait for someone else to take a stand; there is a gas boycott on June 17 and June 18 , pass it on; get involved, a bucket gets filled , drop by drop , you have a voice , together, united we stand and make changes, don't wait for a politician to do it for you; you are in the driver seat so to speak, boycott, protest, make your voice heard, don't just pay and shut up ; America wasn't built on keeping our mouth shut and doing nothing ; Bush is in the oil business , his own, Cheney is in the oil business, his own ; boycott , take a stand
