By the way, I still doubt it will reach $5 a gallon away from the affected area. Remeber, they said this about Katrina
Government intervention into a private industry??? I don't like high gas prices, but the last thing I want is the government getting too involved. Either they would put price caps on things and that would simply lead to shortages. Or even worse, if the Goverment stepped in and tried to run energy companies....I can't even imagine how inneficient they would become.
