Gas is like, 75 cents in Thailand right now, and people are freaking out about rising gas prices there too.
It's all relative, eh? |

Why does the government of a capitalist society need to get involved with this issue? It's all about supply and demand. The oil producing countries have the supply and we have the demand. Let prices rise until demand falls.

Supply and demand, yes. But the supply is effected by things like competition which is fast becoming extinct as the oil companies merge or are gobbled up. Less oil companies means less chance of anyone breaking ranks.
