Good News: $3.00 Pump Price!

[Max Power]

When the price of something goes up, demand falls off (call it conservation) and supply increases (call it new production). We're seeing a tectonic shift.

The entire premise of this thread is a joke.

Price does not determine supply and demand, but rather, supply and demand determine the price.

Apparently the author of that little quote never passed Econ 101.

Because this isn't Nazi Germany. People should be allowed more freedoms, not less. Conservation should be encouraged but I don't think the guy that likes to go fishing on his weekends is an asshole for consuming more gas than I do.

Really? Even Nazi Germany was smart enough to develop the Volkswagon, rather than Hummers that drive dimwitted suburban housewives to the supermarket at 9 miles per gallon.

Since they are such big competitors of America in oil consumption, I wonder how much the Chinese are having to pay for a gallon of gas. Or those who live in India.
