America is interfering in the middle east that is what is cause the unusual unrest so that is why we suffer at the pump. Get out of there country and mind ur own business. Our country is wasting away!!! Help us first.
The middle east is unstable that drives up the price,but so does rejecting the keystone pipeline and refusing to grant permits to the oil companies.Do people really think obama cares if half their paycheck goes to buy gas.
We in Australia have been suffering from ridiculously and unjustifiably high prices for Petrol for the past 10 years. We recently hit 170 cents for one litre of fuel. If Americans think they have it bad they need to go abroad, and for those that appear dumfounded as to why it is so expensive, the answer is simple. Don't intervene in the middle east. That is why they are so high.
Gas Prices R Skyrocketing Under Obama: Oil futures is just that, futures market. Price-per-barrel spikes oil this week have not affected domestic market yet. Iin face former Shell Oil Pres John Hofmeister predicted in Dec 2010, America would face $5/gal gas by 2012, a full month before the revolution in Egypt began. At the end of Bush’s two terms in office, prices were 9% lower than when he took office. The day before Obama was inaugurated average price of a gal was $1.83.
Yeah get some other Soccer MOMMA to tell us such BS----how about crooks on Wall Street in league with BIGGER crooks who own refineries(EXXON,BP,CITGO,SHELL,PHILLIPS 66,ect ect) ....ie same creeps laughing at Congress back in 2007 about the huge profits they made screwing USA citizens over on first wave of 4 dollars a gallon???
Comparing coffee to gasoline!?! What? This chick is nothing but a shill reading from a script! If automobiles could use coffee as fuel, then coffee prices would not remain as "stable" either! They are just trying to elicit sympathy for the oil companies, nothing more, nothing less. I don't feel sorry for BILLIONAIRES who rape the average citizen for every penny on a DAILY basis! Kiss My Ass and Love It!
You are a stupid woman! the traders in NYC are the reason for high priced gas.. Lets say Exxon buys a tanker of crude from Canada, then the traders buy and sell it many times before it gets to out refinery! do your research!
the gas prices are still far behind the prices of everything else. explain that if you can. compared to our prices, you pay nothing anway. give up your ressource-wasting lifestyle. that would do the trick.
Americans waste oil. Simple answer. They don't use it they abuse it then they bitch when it goes up. Slow down and save gas. Let's help eachother by conservation.
Everybody but you know that Russia and Cuba are going to drill for the oil off the coast of florida look who is stupid and it isnt me. this reserve has more oil in it than Saudi Arabia but the companys like Mobil and Enron dont want us drill for it because they buy oil from the Saudis and that would hurt their profit margin. WAKE UP! These are the same people pushing for glovbal taxes the have ivestments in green stuff and carbon trading and stand to make billions of dollars WAKE UP!
@shartne you saying that florida have more oil than the whole of the middle east/ arabs state which is not true . Face it they have more oil than us. the reserve is for the future where oil is scarce for our people. So you WAKE UP! short term people.
bullshit video this is. first off, the earth will not run out of crude oil (its like blood, u loose some the body makes more). second gas was unda a dollar right before daddy bush went to war (dessert storm). gas went up ova night ($1.50). third, the second war that lil' bush put us in, the gas shot to ova $2. fukin' coffee.

So what do you say about demand now? Exxon made $6000.00 profit each second while you were pumping last summer. Thanks for everything Exxon, enjoy the resession !
we have enough gas stockpiled that if we stopped pumping now we would have enough oil stockpiled to last the world 20 years..theres no shortage ad theres no excuse the bottom line is theres a bunch of money hungry pigs at the wheel of the oil industry and thats it
The oil industry makes huge profits, everyone gets angry saying they rip the consumer off. More than %90 of that mny is spent finding more oil for u & me, then they pay the huge amnts of mny to the gvntmentt for envrment protection. The real gouges here are not the oil industry but the gvrnment. %65 of what you pay for ur fuel is tax. the other %45 is on the fuel. In some countries its worst. But do you hear the gvrment talk abut this. Offcourse not! Profit is not dirty. Gvrments R manipulative
Then why is Exxon reporting the highest profits of any company in the history of mankind? The government and big oil are in bed together and always have been.
i would thank if demand goes up and less supply is avalbul there wount be much in pumps this is what general insider corruption looks realistics says if you don,t have it how can you use it so bullshit supply and demand this is corruption i beleve in realalistics not book smart un realistacol ideots like a econimest they don,t know shit from a brick in there ass
While speculation has a marked effect, as does OPEC and Latin oil cartel influence, however, the market effect of supply vs. demans is the true controlling factor of fuel costs. China and India are rapidly increasing demand, far exceeding world output. This causes the price to rise.
the price of gas is high for 2 reason the oil companies are unregulated and we have to pay what they charge were stuck but what I really find funny is that mccain is blaming high gas prices on obama LOL only a neocon could or would believe that
hahaha, look on foxnews and you will see that fox posted the title "Gas prices dive below 4 dollars" as if going down 12 cents is a dive? lol diving is when you go deep, 12 cents is not deep, are they fucken kidding me?
wind power is expensive and unreliable. in fact all energy sources have their downfalls. i believe that nuclear energy, which happens to be a safe and proven technology, is the best answer. it leaves the smallest environmental impact (believe it or not) and is relatively inexpensive.
you're quite right but like you said:"all energy sources have their downfalls".Well in the wake of terrorism nuclear energy is quite a uncomfortable source although the good out weigh the bad.Secondly, accidents can and do happen.If a nuclear accident were to occur, God forbid, it would be hell on earth, like the Chernobyl accident of 1986.Yet if an oil spill were to happen or some other accident it wud be easily contained (although oil is nasty & toxic).None can compare to a nuclear accident.
lol wth is starteing a world war 3 ganna do... spen bils on gas then get more for self but just wasted a lot... or...blowing up earth because wepons to big now...
She's not model grade, but I just keep thinking of "Dr. Fellatio's Blowjob Adventures," while watching her. I don't know, she's just kinda slutty looking.
I keep seeing this video pop up, when I search for high oil price crap. So, I just thought I'd comment about her sluttiness.
Yeah, I think you're on to something.... Something about her just screams, "slut, slut, slut", even though she makes no remotely direct reference to sex. Perhaps the way she's casually justifying something that men are involved a lot in? Who knows?
Supply and demand do not account for the rises we have seen. One year ago, perhaps some supply disruptions were to blame for a little of the hike. This year, however, its greedy oil tycoons inflating the market to unspeakable levels just to take advantage of stupid people who don't know better and thanks to legislation that gives tax breaks to record profit making oil companies istead of the people who really need, the poor Jo Schmo's out there paying $4.11/gal for gasoline.
Lovely, and just after that eloquent presentation about supply and demand, she slips in "while there hasn't been a shortage..". Another little item I noticed: "Uncertainty in oil producing countries". It's a nice passive political jab, but this time it's not the Oil producers, but the futures market itself which is to blame. Oil companies are manipulating it, and we need to stop putting up with it.
Saudi Arabia is currently working on building gas and diesel refineries. Do you guys even understand what this means? Soon there will be no more crude oil from them and they will only sell us gas and diesel, if everyone thinks fuel prices are high now, wait until this starts. They will suck us dry. The environmentalist love these fuel prices, they should stick to their words and quit driving gas operated cars, hypocrites. You will all be happy when Iraq starts being drilled for oil.
I dont know, we will just have too see. i know an older guy thats in the oil business, hes not a big company but he says the opposite of what you say.
even if you have and ideal on alternative fuels, the oil companies will pay off someone to kill you, its that simple. money is alot of power, and these guys have both, hell if anyone took the time they could run a car on fucking magnets, hell if you could find a way to boil water you could go steam powered. they've already had steam engines...but w/e i'm probally going to get thumbs down on this but idgaf, freedom of speech fucker.
I think price of coffee is going up and staying up because of the price of gas. We're basically paying that extra buck for that truck driver to drop off the item at the store.......... Thats just my thought.
The people responsible for manipulating gas prices couldn't have made a better video than this to brain wash you. "Duh, i'm a dolt and i believe this video and that everything is just hunky dory fine. It's those pesky large signs that are the problem."
The reason gas is so high has absolutely nothing to do with the price of Oil. It is a fabrication by the republican administration.They are doing this in response to the democrats recent increase in the minimum wage. It is all politics people. It really is time to have a revolution and take back our country. Our constitution tells us to throw the bums out when it gets this bad. We no longer elect our representatives they elect us. Tea party anyone?
Your name is appropriate....Toolman because you are a tool. Gas prices have NOTHING to do with any government. If it did THEY WOULD BE RUN OUT OF TOWN ON A RAIL...Niehter the democratic party nor the republican party can do anything about a commodity like gasoline. What we have to do is change what we put in our cars...However, that isn't going to do swat for food prices and everything else that is dependent on gas for living in the 21st century.
With the ignorant people in this country no one will be held accountable. You are proof that the system has the everyday wacky American drinking the kool-aid. I for one think this Gov. is the problem you are obviously a Bush cheerleader like the druggie Rush and baby Jesus Shaun.
DEMOCRAT SENATORS IN CONGRESS said they'll take immediate action to lower oil/gas/gasoline prices from their current extremes by reining in speculative excess in the oil futures market. Tell the CFTC to raise margin requirements & close loopholes that allow unregulated speculation in energy futures.
Supply & Demand or drilling excuses are false. OPEC produces more than needed. Price increase is due to speculators on oil commodities artificially boosting the price to produce a higher return.
The not-so-scientific oil price formula: (A + B + C) x D = E A = 1 US President from Texas B = Existence of A's deep family friendships among Saudi royalty C = 1 unconstitutional US invasion of the #3 OPEC member country D = Length, in years, of US occupation of invaded country factored into C, above E = Oil Price *Note 1: change in A will reduce E Note 2: B is constant Note 3: C is constant Note 4: Limiting D will reduce E
by the way here the # demand for oil in the US is down 4% from last year, a big number for something everyone uses. But what do you expect in a world run by rich people that spend millions of dollars to get elected to a position that pays a couple hundred thousand a year.
It has nothing to do with supply of oil. Theres enough oil left to drive our cars around until earth is not habital for humans. We need new refineries to convert oil to gas (there hasn't been one built in the states in my lifetime. The biggest factor is bullshit speculation. Taxes!!! I remember paying a 99 cents a gallon. Depending on what state you live in you might be paying close to a dollar a gallon in taxes on a gallon of gas. Gas tax should be fixed not a percentage
I'd like to take a couple of lines here to shed lite on the "delusional Reality" of 'Rising Gas Prices.' Gas prices are NOT on the way UP. Bear with me...
the dollar is falling...no stablizing factor such as Silver/Gold...the dollar is back by printing press. the dollar is loose value...
1) question: what was the price of gas prior to Theodre Rose. (president) taking dollar of silver standard.
ans: the exact same as it is today!!! gas is not rising ...the dollar is falling. effect r worse
No, adamstaton the demand for oil has not goneup 300%. Actually the demand for oil in America has gone down. Saudi Arabia and Iran have both said they are sitting on millions of barrels of oil. Don't fall for the bullshit you hear from FOX, CNN or the other Networks. These corporations all have bills sitting before Congress and Bush administration and they don't want to rock the boat.
The price of gas has gone up because the value of the dollar goes down. The value of the dollar goes down because we borrow 2.5 Billion dollars a day from China to pay for the Iraq war. The the Federal reserve prints money out of thin air thus making our dollar worth less. Remember all paper money isn't real money. Only gold and silver are legal tender. The more money we print the less are paper is worth because the amount of gold remains the same. This is the truth.
this is ppooop logic. think Nike and tell me how supply and demand work. Not like this lady would have you believe. 'demand' is manufactured...not supply based.
THE PRICE OF GAS HAS NOT GONE UP. The value of the dollar has just gone down! in 1947 a gallon of gasoline cost about 25 cents. A 1947 quarter contained 1/4 ounce of silver which is worth.. guess what! over $4.50. Which means, THE VALUE OF GAS HAS GONE DOWN. Wakeup people these are shell games.
The government collects almost DOUBLE what the oil company makes per gallon. The underlying problem is ignored. This is misinformation.
169pepsi - there are some MAJOR positive spinoffs from the high price of oil.
1) imports become uneconomical, giving american companies a fighting chance.
2) the high price of oil has a double whammy effect on a country like china because not only are they MASSIVE exporters, they are also heavily reliant on imports due to their lack of natural resources.
3)the high price of oil forces consumers to look at buying new, energy efficient products, which in turn helps the green industry grow
169pepsi We do live in a consumer "driven" economy!
nice pun. ha!
The thing is in order to survive, the consumer economy will have to change, or we will keep sinkholing our money out of the country and into china, india, etc.
our 'consumer' economy used to be good for america when we were buying AMERICAN products...now that we've lost the industrial base that made this country strong, it's time to look past the consumer economy into a new one (med/tech). until that happens, we're screwed.
its not that were running out of oil, we have enough oil to last the who globe for centuries, its that were running out of cheap oil, because in the middle east its already pure, but in north america its in rocks, and need hot water added to it to seperate it,
honestly if it had to do with supply and demand then why are the national oil reserves are at an 8 percent high sense 2000 honestly the lady in this report is an idiot because its really simple research and if you have watched the back doors on trading you'll see that much of it has to do with hedge fund's and the future market
By the way, I am currently in the Middle East, and have talked to a lot of people, both middle east and from around the globe. Fujariah, UAE, and Bahrain.
Bullshit. Prices of oil are so high because of the arab world wanting to build new cities, including the one in dubai where they had to make several islands for the new city. Has nothing to do with the demand, use a little commen sence here. Do the research.
I don't have a problem with the owners of the oil fields in the middle east profiting from their sales. Unfortunately, they seem to be very wasteful on what they spend their profits on. Unfortunately the new cities are being built by and for the super rich and the wealth is not being spread to all of the people of the oil producing countries.
Most certainly though the current situation has to do with the current rate of demand is not being met by the current rate of supply.
Alberta and Brittish Columbia should be full of tar sands. Tar sands are plentiful in the US too. US has them in North Dakota, Wyoming, Utah and Colorado. It's a slow process getting all that oil out.
Certainly it's viable to begin extracting the oil sands. But you have to mine about two tons of tar sands to produce one barrel of oil. It can also be done in situ. Nevertheless, it's very energy intensive. About 1/3 of the energy contained in the sands will be used to mine the sand. The second problem is that the *rate* at which tar sands can be recovered is not very fast. Remember peak oil is about the *rate*, not so much the quantity. This will mean lots of conservation none the less
I'm pretty sure that we have hit peak oil. The world now consumes 6 barrels of oil for every newly discovered barrel of oil. I don't think that the gasoline engine can be improved all that much for fuel efficiency because it's limited by the fundamentals of the Carnot cycle. The gasoline engine is 30% efficient at best. Most of the waste energy produces heat - hot water in the radiator and in turn hot air around the car, hot exhaust. A small amount is heat from friction.
what about the north dakota deposits? They say that there is enough oil under north dakota the run the us for 22 years. And why should extracting it be a problem? They strip mine all over the state for coal, so why arent we drilling for oil there also???
4 billion barrels of heavy oil in shale ... that's 4-5 months worth at today's rate of consumption. Don't make me laugh. It will take 22 years to get it out. US oil consumption exceeds the total of the next 5 largest consumers - China, Japan, Russia, Germany, and India COMBINED
The petroleum geology of the United States is very well understood. They pretty much know where all of the oil is. Most of what is left is not economical to extract even at today's much higher prices.
That's a load of crap. Yes, they know where it is, and have asked to get it. But at todays prices it is economical. Maybe not in the prices of the late 90s but it is now. Any added resource will lower the price.
There is no more oil at home to speak of. Oil peaked in the US in 1971. The amount of oil we are getting out of the ground now is about the same as we did in 1945.
the big western private oil corporations only control 5% of the oil fields. Nationalization of oil production accounts for 90% of the fields with small private companies splitting the remaining 5%. Nationalization is driving the bus. Exporting countries are modernizing and using more of their own oil. Your last sentence is spot on though.
The problem is not the quantity of oil in the ground, but it's the *rate* at which it can be delivered to the pump and does it meet the *rate* at which it's demanded? The oil companies simply can't pump it out any faster anymore to meet the demand. This is called peak oil. It's here.
Your wrong . .in Anwaw there is plenty of oil .. Plenty of oil off our coasts .. the problem is we are not allowed to explore or refien because of radical evivormentalists
10.4B barrels is what experts estimate Anwar to be. But it sounds like you are the top Anwar expert here - a well seasoned Petroleum Geologist and have made your own assessments after taking a close look at all the known geology, the seismic charts and the test wells. I'm sure you know how to do all that.
Do you really believe enviromentalists have any power. The USA is an oligarky and big buisness gets anything it wants. No new refineries because the oil corps dont want to waste the capitol on building them because they know they will have no product to refine. The oligarky loves to play the shift the blame to the liberal game. The bankers are hoping to divide and conquer the USA so they can usher in facism. So far they are doing a pretty good job. No offence but they seem to have gotten to you
Its a thing of supply and demand... OK, what if we pick on a particular gas company, and don't buy there gas at all, until they drop there price approximately 10 cents below the competition. When they do we all buy their gas, and only their gas until the competition drops their price 10 cents below the previous company. We then repeat the process until the prices drop back down.
I am laughing at you stupid people, its so funny how you guys spent money on stupid gas. The reason why I am laughing is because I see one person per vehicle everywhere that I turn, if you guys want to cut back on gas prices, why not carpool, take the fucking bus, or ride a fucking bicycle, riding a bike would save you fucking gas money for other things. Think, don't be fucking stupid.
My wonderfull ignorant friend..(If i could call you such?) What we are experiencing here (especially in the US)is NOT a laughing matter..I guess either you must not be from the US or living under a rock somewhere? some people do not have the ability to "carpool",or take "the bus" ect. In my opinion,"Supply and Demand" is not in effect here. The rising cost of gas is caused by wall street speculators driving up the price of oil and devaluating the dollar everywhere.
Well first of all, thanx for your wonderful compliment. Second, are you a person so dependant on oil? it seems that you are. Well guess what? the top heads of the oil industry are exactly laughing at you guys because they know that oil is as consumable as water, so they are pretty much laughing at you guys because they know you people cant' live with out this liquid. Hence the gas price is just going to continue to sky-rocket unless they see a decline of gas consumption...
The oil industry is part of the problem,that is correct our main problem is OPEC and the speculators on Wall Street. You will not see a decline of oil usuage in this country or anywhere else because we are dependant on Saudi oil and are forced to buy it. The only way out is to drill for our own oil which our govt is against or create alturnative fuels. So unless something is done against speculation or dependantcy we will continue to pay.
I am with you. I will not buy gas on June 1st and a few days after that. But I am not sure that will work because we will just have to buy gas the day before. There has got to be a better way. They are killing us with these gas prices.
In 1967 gas in my georgia town was .33 cents a gallon in 1997 it had only risen here to 1.03 a gallon for regular unleaded. So in 40 years it only went up .70 cents so why in the last 11 years has it gone up 3.00 us dollars. While Americans are mad about the overall price its the meteoric rate it's in which the price is climbing. Did your Gas in Europe get to 6 and 7 dollars a gallon overnight?
America is interfering in the middle east that is what is cause the unusual unrest so that is why we suffer at the pump. Get out of there country and mind ur own business. Our country is wasting away!!! Help us first.

The oil industry makes huge profits, everyone gets angry saying they rip the consumer off. More than %90 of that mny is spent finding more oil for u & me, then they pay the huge amnts of mny to the gvntmentt for envrment protection. The real gouges here are not the oil industry but the gvrnment. %65 of what you pay for ur fuel is tax. the other %45 is on the fuel. In some countries its worst. But do you hear the gvrment talk abut this. Offcourse not! Profit is not dirty. Gvrments R manipulative

While speculation has a marked effect, as does OPEC and Latin oil cartel influence, however, the market effect of supply vs. demans is the true controlling factor of fuel costs. China and India are rapidly increasing demand, far exceeding world output. This causes the price to rise.

The price of gas has gone up because the value of the dollar goes down. The value of the dollar goes down because we borrow 2.5 Billion dollars a day from China to pay for the Iraq war.

169pepsi - there are some MAJOR positive spinoffs from the high price of oil.
1) imports become uneconomical, giving american companies a fighting chance.
2) the high price of oil has a double whammy effect on a country like china because not only are they MASSIVE exporters, they are also heavily reliant on imports due to their lack of natural resources.
3)the high price of oil forces consumers to look at buying new, energy efficient products, which in turn helps the green industry grow

I don't have a problem with the owners of the oil fields in the middle east profiting from their sales. Unfortunately, they seem to be very wasteful on what they spend their profits on. Unfortunately the new cities are being built by and for the super rich and the wealth is not being spread to all of the people of the oil producing countries.
Most certainly though the current situation has to do with the current rate of demand is not being met by the current rate of supply.

Certainly it's viable to begin extracting the oil sands. But you have to mine about two tons of tar sands to produce one barrel of oil. It can also be done in situ. Nevertheless, it's very energy intensive. About 1/3 of the energy contained in the sands will be used to mine the sand. The second problem is that the *rate* at which tar sands can be recovered is not very fast. Remember peak oil is about the *rate*, not so much the quantity. This will mean lots of conservation none the less

I'm pretty sure that we have hit peak oil. The world now consumes 6 barrels of oil for every newly discovered barrel of oil. I don't think that the gasoline engine can be improved all that much for fuel efficiency because it's limited by the fundamentals of the Carnot cycle. The gasoline engine is 30% efficient at best. Most of the waste energy produces heat - hot water in the radiator and in turn hot air around the car, hot exhaust. A small amount is heat from friction.

The oil industry is part of the problem,that is correct our main problem is OPEC and the speculators on Wall Street. You will not see a decline of oil usuage in this country or anywhere else because we are dependant on Saudi oil and are forced to buy it.
