Why don't they just lower the gas prices for a little bit then raise them after a longer period of time? Hurricane Ike was kinda harsh, considering we lost power here too. We'll need the gas, but will be unable to afford it so much.
i think gas prices are the main cause of why most people no longer are financially stable. Back then it only cost like 20.00 to refill your tank now its almost past 50.00 and 60.00 dollars!! They should lower them just for a little amount time.
Gas prices are killing alot of people, and I agree that it would be beneficial if the gas prices were to be lowered, but I cannot think of an easy way to do that, with OPEC and no permission for offshore drilling. I hope that gas prices continue to drop in the future, but, again I cannot think of any easy way for that to happen
Gas prices are hurting people financially. people just can't afford it. The gas prices haven't made to 4 dollars but its high. People are gonna start getting crazy.
i think its good that the gas prices are going down. the only thing about it is that the lower the prices go, the higher they will rise when the people decide to raise them.
