I'm waiting for the pinch here. Our fuel comes up river via barge, now in a few short weeks the surplus we had of fuel will be gone and what comes in will be trucked in. All because they're replacing the vast majority of the locks on the river at once.

It has nothing to do with oil production. Aggregate demand has fallen off since the economic downturn. So much in fact that there were tankers full off crude that would sit off shore for weeks before they could off load.

It does in fact have everything to do with the fact that our illustrious leaders continue to protect their banker buddies by stealing from you and I and devaluing our dollar.

"Quantitative Easing" is just another word for printing money. Devalue the dollar and everything priced in dollars soars.

If I had a dollar for everyone of these gas threads I've seen recently, I could almost buy a gallon of gas!

I daily drive my truck and its about $250 a month or so just to go to work.

Doesn't bother me much as I knew it would be expensive. Will consider getting a commuter car if prices hang steady over $4.00/gallon.
