[frylock44]

Wow its like $2.81 here in Loganville Ga before the $.10 discount I get with my Kroger plus card.

[HIKEOUTDOORS]

Everybody needs to check out Lindsey Williams 2012 on here, and watch all 3 of his videos. Part 2 and 3 are over an hour long, and he puts out what to expect in the next year.

[jh4dc5s]

You guys are getting ass raped up there.

[CoolConejo]

Do you guys remember when it was hitting past 4$? lets hope it doesn't go back to that. I will be investing in a good bike so i can get around this summer, To and from School, work etc..

[kbdory]

Here in Mississippi, we haven't seen $3 yet, its around $2.84 and counting. Oh yea, and 9/10th.

[holyinpure]

Gas Will Hit At $5.00 A Gallon Soon.

[Festoolification]

Here in the UK costing me $160 to fill the van. Curently £1.30 odd a litre.

[yaplonglong]

Don't worry - we are at 1.22 per liter in Vancouver BC, which is about $4.80 per gal in the US - don't worry it's coming to Oregon. Just hold your breath for a few months.

[sweetlipss84]

great video..i live in oregon too ..gresham

[pavilionking06]

Gas prices are only going to continue to rise.. All the Liberal Progressives riding Light Rail, carpooling, walking, biking and driving Shiny Hybrid Electric Vehicles are saying... WE TOLD YOU SO!!!!

[texture6]

Ouch SoCal is between $3.32 and $3.49 for regular

[pavilionking06]

It's called MAX, Streetcar, Bus, Carpool, Bike, Walk.. Gas will only get more expensive as time passes. Those Liberal Progressives riding around on bikes and driving in their shiny hybrid electric vehicles are screaming TOLD YA SO!

[tyronebiggums3]

I'm paying about $3.45/gallon in the SF Bay area. I only use about 5 gallons per week so it's not demanding in terms of total cost.

[skyding8962]

California gas prices are still higher than you guys. The cheapest prices in california in the ENTIRE state aren't even 3.09.

[baltimorejohn]

It's gotta be taxes pushing the price even higher, or inflation, or both. The cost of a barrel of oil has been going down the last week. WTF. I'm sick of government making everything worse.

[pavilionking06]

@baltimorejohn OR... it could be the fact that oil reserves are becoming harder and harder to find and extract. It's called peak oil and the enemies we purchase our oil from are not going to make the transition easy.

[baltimorejohn]

@pavilionking06 No it's called the EPA who regulates everthing to the environment and won't let the oil companies explore new areas or when the find oil won't let them drill and even when we get the oil we can't even build new refinary plants to refine all the regulated blends the government requires them to make. Why the hell would any oil company even do business in this country? Or any business.?

[pavilionking06]

@baltimorejohn Wow.. you have a lot of education to catch up on. Start with Google search and let the truth shed it's light in your darkness.

[baltimorejohn]

@pavilionking06 Maybe you should stop believing everything you get from a propagandist company like google and use a little logic with some of your research. Google is in bed with the leftist in government and has the same agenda to control the sheep in this country. Maybe next time you do a search you should go on the 50th page or maybe the 1,00,000th page instead of the first page. Did you ever ask yourself how they get there pick for the top of there list?OOH maybe BIG CORPORATIONS and PROFIT

[pavilionking06]

@baltimorejohn WOW. Your incredible naive if you are so paranoid you actually believe the entire unrestricted internet is in on some "green agenda scheme." People like you don't realize that this is far beyond "save the whales, peace, love, harmony" because your so blinded to the truth. OUR WAY OF LIFE, OUR NATIONAL SECURITY, OUR ENVIRONMENT is threatened by depending on oil, and oil that comes from our enemies no less. The US hit peak oil in the 70's (google that, educate yourself) and it's

[pavilionking06]

@baltimorejohn --- Continuing to happen worldwide. Any resemblance to our way of life, will only be sustained in the future through alternative energy sources. While the entire globe is fighting for the last FINITE drop of oil, it will be the nation with other options for energy that comes stand tall and stands secure. The day's of a semi truck shipping your ceasear salad 1,000 miles to a Walmart near you in some suburb is coming to an end. Look at the turmoil in Egypt... gas prices are rising.

[baltimorejohn]

@pavilionking06 If we hit peak oil in the 70's why haven't we ran out then.What about all that oil in the gulf that couldn't be stopped.The peak oil argument is out dated and bogus.As far as alternative fuels, thats great but don't take away what we have that works.Thats were the free market comes in.Have u ever researched how much energy and pollution is used to make an electric car.

[baltimorejohn]

@baltimorejohn Not to mention the how much it cost after its made which has to be subsidized by tax payers just to get people to buy them and the cost of rising electricity cost to charge them.

[baltimorejohn]

@baltimorejohn Whats going on in Egypt is being caused by food shortages from all the wasted space of crops being used on corn to burn in our gas tanks along with the hyperinflation being caused from all the fiat money being printed by governments world wide and the brutality of a dictator. Not peak oil.

[pavilionking06]

@baltimorejoh Why haven't we run out? Does it really take a geophysicist's explanation? Oil is a finite resource that is not being replenished and the world as a whole is consuming oil more rapidly than ever before. Should we wait for it to become completely exhausted before we start searching for alternative options because "what we have works?"

[baltimorejohn]

@pavilionking06 So is salt water and dirt. You as an earth worshipper should be happy if we run out of oil. Then we wouldn't be causing the global warming, pollution and exploitation of foriegn nations you and all you fellow liberals are so worried about. Like what Pres. Obama said about the need to necissarily skyrocket the cost of energy mainly the coal industry to force people to government controls. wake up man, you've been brainwashed.

[pavilionking06]

@baltimorejohn I'm an "Earth worshiper" because I have legitimate concern that our future is in jeopardy directly as a result of our dependence on a finite resource? "So is salt water and dirt?" We don't use salt water or dirt for energy so I'm not sure why you even brought that into the conversation. Us "Liberals" who actually care about the future prosperity of our nation & environment will continue to push for alternatives that not only make our nation secure but benefit our environment.

[baltimorejohn]

@pavilionking06 All Im sayin is this country (USA) has enough oil to last us over a hundred years in the Bakken oilfields alone not to mention ANWAR, Texas, the gulf and along our coast lines.We're just not aloud to get it without gov. approval which forces companies to drill reckless like in the gulf instead of easier methods.I'm for the cheapest energy possible that works.Alt.energy isn't cheap and isnt fully developed yet so why take away what woks b4 the free market developes the technology.

[pavilionking06]

@baltimorejohn False, False and false. Its takes massive amounts of energy to extract and purify oil. You lose energy and profit simply trying to make a profit and provide energy. You make a one time investment in wind, solar, wave, geothermal, energy for example and all future costs are for routine maintenance in exchange for free energy. Why do you think nations like China are spending BILLIONS of dollars to become the #1 alternative energy provider on earth?

[baltimorejohn]

@pavilionking06 That supposed free energy only produces a small fraction of the energy we need and has to be subsidized to by taxpayer to pay what it cost to build and run. If they were such great sources of energy they wouldn't need to be subsidized. China also buying up more oil than any other country also including the oil rigs that left the gulf china now is leasing to drill oil for them. They also have a damn that is so big it produces 20times more energy than Hoover.EPA wont let us do that

[pavilionking06]

@baltimorejohn Do you have any idea how many BILLIONS in tax subsidies oil companies like BP receive from the taxpayers currently?

[baltimorejohn]

@pavilionking06 I know they get money and they shouldn't get a damn dime. But at the same token we're giving Venezuala billions to drill offshore while there's a moratorium on our drilling for oil. WTF?

[jimbobubbadj]

@baltimorejohn It takes more energy to separate the oil from the shale than what the extracted oil would produce. When they give huge estimates for the amount of oil in shale oil this is what they are referring to. They never mention the energy required to extract it. Contrary to popular belief and what CNBC has been saying, there are not these giant deep underground reservoirs of oil, relatively speaking.

[robgermar]

Give Us electric cars :) fill him up for 2 dollar :))

[robgermar]

@robgermar oeps :( someone will go broke ;)

[robgermar]

5.90 EURO Netherlands :) You are catching up :))

[HokiesAndDawgs]

@robgermar

I assume your country will eventually throw out the socialists/communists, right?

[robgermar]

@HokiesAndDawgs My queen has 50 % of the stocks of Dutch Shell, my country is a monarchy.

[robgermar]

@robgermar and 70 % is tax :))

[lindabebe835]

I just saw a vid from peter schiff, he stated inflation affects commodity prices. gas is gonna go way up, this may be just the beginning.

[rayme4raw]

@lindabebe835 I'd look for the economy to crash again once gas reaches $4.00 a gallon like last time.

[PestControl02]

3.09 per gallon here in south florida.

[adb024]

@TheOregonRedneck A room, not my own apartment.

[mja2035]

Portland is more expensive than Denver and gas lines, sheesh !

[adb024]

@mja2035 Gas lines at the cheap place.

[mja2035]

@adb024 We have gas lines at the local Sam's Club where the gas is the cheapest in town too. I always enjoy your fine on the ground and history reporting Aaron. Thanks, Mike in Colorado.

[BMWg84]

If you think those prices are high, dont come to southern california

[adb024]

@BMWg84 I know. I seen George’s gas video a few months ago, and it was 3.33$.

[Alexiscom1]

I am paying 4.29$ per gallon in Canad(a gallon 3.8 litter) Consider your self very lucky to have almost the Lowest World prices for gasoline

[adb024]

@Alexiscom1 4.29$ Is it going up still for you.

[Alexiscom1]

@adb024 It was 3.95$ about 2 months ago.
