Gas prices are nothing to complain about
And all of this coming from someone who drives a bluebird blue Prius! Get real. Not everyone out there can just go out and buy a Prius or a $40,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych],000+ Volt that catch fire or a Leaf that *may* get you up to 100 miles per charge, if you lucky. Not to mention the unwritten law that every hybrid/electric car must look absolutely horrid. It like the consequence of owning a fuel efficient vehicle "look at me, I get 50mpg but my car looks like a Jetson spaceship and a Fiat procreated". The majority of the population utilize gasoline engines and the continual increase at the pump hurts each and every one of us. I understand the need for to more fuel effecient/green vehicles but it won happen overnight. Gas prices change literally overnight and we as Americans keep having to shell out more and more money during this rough time in the economy. So to these people who say that gas needs to be higher or that they don care if it hits $11/gal,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], just remember that at one time or another,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], you were just as dependent on gas as the rest of us. And to the people who say get a bicycle; do you work 25 miles from work? Do you want to ride that thing 50+ miles a day in the rain/snow? So I will continue to sit next to you at the red light and vroom my engine over your hush. And while you vacuuming your lawn I wave at ya from my John Deere.
Posted by Ha HaHermitage,While I applaud the moves you have personally made, nobody including our elected officials have mentioned the 500 pound gorilla in the room; namely that this country has based it entire economy on the access of cheap energy by burning fossil fuels in the form of oil, natural gas, and coal. GM has recently announced an engine that can burn either gasoline or natural gas. The trucking industry is making the change from diesel to natural gas in order to save $10,000 /truck/year. Once we burned up all the natural gas for transportation and fertilizer manufacture,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], what will we he heating our homes with when it 10 below in January? Or are we hoping that climate change will convert Minnesota to Miami? Just try to think about how our economy would function tomorrow if there was no longer access to fossil fuels in terms of plastics, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, food production, let alone transportation and the heating or cooling of our homes. Drill baby, drill is not a long term sustainable answer and while thinking about the future is uncomfortable,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], I would like to think that there will be something for my grandchildren or their grandchildren.

Oil is traded on a global market--it price matters not where it is extracted but the cost of that extraction in terms of technical difficulty, ease of transport and refining, and extraction taxes/royalties. and onward to the markets across the Pacific.
Efficiency is something that Americans must embrace because it the only way we can retain anything like our current standard of living in a finite world with rapidly-growing demand,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].

"Without assessing who or what is to blame,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], or the mysterious coincidence that gas prices (set by the quite conservative oil industry) are elevated in this election year"
What an idiotic and all-too-common assertion. Oil prices are set by global traders, not by oil companies. It was true when oil was selling for $8 a barrel in 1998,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and it true now. So long as the American public continues to accept this idiocy, we have no chance of solving the energy problem.
