Blame it on the Government..yep yep..thats how ya do it. You should look at the real culprits, the Oil companies, I believe Exon posted this Quarter the highest Profit ever by a US company in a Quarter, believe it was 9billion dollars. But ya gota look at it like this also, England pays almost 5 bucks gallon..US is close to 3bucks..WHERE EGYPT..a country that produces no oil at all, pays 35 Cents..
