...are you saying that it would take sub-$1 gas to make a difference?http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worl...go-Chavez.html
All this means that Venezuela has missed much of the benefit from the oil boom and, now that prices are falling, Mr Chavez faces huge financial problems. Nobody is sure at what point his government would be unable to pay its bills, but most sources consulted believe this would probably happen if oil falls to $80 a barrel. Yesterday, oil was trading at $79.80.
Not all oil producers are affected by falling prices in the same way. Iran and Venezuela, for example, need $95 a barrel to balance their budgets, according to various estimates. Both Nigeria and Iraq recently said they would reduce their budgets for next year because of lower prices.

Sendero, it sounds like this issue makes you very angry.
I expected $4 a gallon gas before 2010 when I bought my car 2 years ago.
I am just seeing my predictions ring true.
I got rid of a car that got half the gas mileage of my Mustang.
There you go again.
I'm sorry, I didn't realize.
I thought I was at the ADULT table.
Yes, that is only about 10% of the total market.
It would only affect it for a short term.
It would also further justify OPEC not to produce at any higher levels.
My math is sound. Only the variables can change.
There are many reasons for the variables to change, but I don't see them changing enough to favor $2.50 a gallon gas ever again

I paid $2.419 at Hess today and just up the street I saw $2.389
I don't usually use Hess in the stang but the price was right and my Shell station is $2.599 for cash and $2.699 for credit.
I hate these stations that charge more for credit now, or should I say less for cash.
It's actually illegal to charge more for a credit purchase, but legal to offer a discount for cash.
Whats the difference???
