Gas Price

The prices on gas seems to be making another move upward, when can the government
control this instability? It really does affect the economy and prevents any improvement
of the economy from occurring.

This might also be linked to the ramped up chattering of the nuclear capabilities of Iran.

Israel seems to be the catalyst of such chattering.

What say you?

There appears to be a trend in the price of oil and I believe that we are seeing it in gas prices. War with Iran is indeed possible but I think that is a fairly minor effect at this point.

Personally I'm alarmed by our level of CO2 output. And a great deal of this comes from gasoline so I'm not necessarily unhappy to see the price of gas rise.
