Question

How long to do think it will take for the gasoline prices to start rising again? How long until they hit an all time high?

Answer 1

There is an unelected group in the US that wields more power than any president- the Military Industrial Complex. Eisenhower warned us about this in his farewell address; he admitted being scared they would interrupt democracy in our country by influencing war just to sell their products.

The strategy that is used to gain influence is by spreading out the industrial complex into each state they need influence. Senators will want to create jobs for his constituents and get the contributions from the complex.

Government officials will be offered sweetheart consulting positions after office if they agree to assist in making the US an ever bigger military superpower. The only problem is where will it end, and at what cost? Eisenhower talked about the iron cross. We should listen today now more than ever.

You think it matters what president or leaders we have. It doesn't. Some presidents are just more susceptible to influence than others (BUSH and Republicans in general) and initiate the military influenced changes more quickly. The MIComplex prefers a fascist style government b/c it's easier to sell its concepts/ideas/products.

Answer 2

The prices will go up no matter what party gets in. But the reason they have gone down is because the oil companies are in bed with the Republicans. They want to make sure they get re-elected by making the public feel the economy is getting better. So, they will go up by the first of December, but they will be at the highest (maybe $3.29) when the summer vacation time is here, most likely in July 2007.

Answer 3

Why do you think the politicians have any influence at all on the price of gas?

Oh, right, the power of taxation! And which party is it that has been screaming about tax breaks for the rich and powerful? About taxing fuel to reduce greenhouse gas emissions?

Right. The Democrats!

Answer 4

Believe it or not not everything that happens in the US is a result of a politicians actions. We really need to stop linking every nad thing that happens to the party we hate and every good thing to the party we love. It's shallow thinking and not very productive.

Let me quote the seattle times here:

For most of the past two years, oil prices have risen because the world's oil producers have struggled to keep pace with growing demand, particularly from China and India. Spare oil-production capacity grew so tight that market players feared that any disruption to oil production could create shortages.

Fear of disruption focused on fighting in Nigeria, escalating tensions over Iran's nuclear program, violence between Israel and Lebanon that might spread to oil-producing neighbors, and the prospect that hurricanes might topple oil facilities in the Gulf of Mexico.

Oil traders bet that such worrisome developments would drive up the future price of oil. Oil is traded in contracts for future delivery, and companies that take physical delivery of oil are just a small part of total trading. Large pension and commodities funds are the big traders and they're seeking profits. They've sunk $105 billion or more into oil futures in recent years, according to Verleger. Their bets that oil prices would rise in the future bid up the price of oil.

That, in turn, led users of oil to create stockpiles as cushions against supply disruptions and even higher future prices. Now inventories of oil are approaching 1990 levels.

But many of the conditions that drove investors to bid up oil prices are ebbing. Tensions over Israel, Lebanon and Nigeria are easing. The hurricane season has presented no threat so far to the Gulf of Mexico. The U.S. peak summer driving season is over, so gasoline demand is falling.

With fear of supply disruptions ebbing, oil prices began sliding. With oil inventories high, refiners that turn oil into gasoline are expected to cut production. As refiners cut production, oil companies increasingly risk getting stuck with excess oil supplies. There's already anecdotal evidence of oil companies chartering tankers to store excess oil.

How about that? Absolutley no mention of democrats or republicans.
