I think the problem is the greedy bastards (elected officials) are having their pockets lined by the oil companies so they let them rape us with high prices at will. It is a shame.

The federal gov't probably makes $2 for every $1 that the oil companies make in profit, talk about a crime. Anyway, I didn't read anywhere in the constitution about the gov't responsibility to protect us from high prices.
