I knew that.

There is no shortage...the last time I've had to wait in line for gas was 2005.

Prices are being driven up because of increased demand (why not make more money out of the deal), increased investment into drilling (about 50 mil to drill an well and many are dry)....

There are reasons for prices to be higher, but there is something else going on. Many thing some commodities are being bought up at a higher price because it's an election year and for "turmoil" in the mid east.
