I'm doing what I can. I'm driving less and putting E85 in my car. I'd rather see my fuel money go to Iowa rednecks than terrorist-supporting Arabs.

"As recently as August, investors were selling oil refiners on concern an economic slowdown would slash fuel demand in the U.S., the world's largest energy market. During seven weeks last August and September, Valero shares fell 29 percent, wiping out $12 billion in market value."
But we cut production to start to drive the demand back up so we did not lose any money... And we are going to tell you now that their is more demand for it, even though every day more and more people are buying more fuel efficient vehicles... |

Honestly, what would the $ threshold be that would make people make such drastic decisions/changes? |

No I am saying DEMAND was down last year and early this year and they cut it to keep their profit levels high... They forced the price hike, on us when the market did not call for it... Americans were not using as much gas and dropping the price of it.. |

As someone who does quite a bit of traveling to see family, gas prices are really killing me. Every time I go see my mother, or we go see my wife's family, we're spending around $120 in gas alone.
