So I read this article today about how OPEC will cut production to keep oil at $55/barrel.  So there you have it, that is why gas is expensive.  It’s not the government’s fault.  Oil prices are not a political issue.  I would love to see oil prices come down again, I would love to pay $1.15 for gas again, but oil is about supply and demand not about the President.

Now granted, Congress could open up more drilling in ANWR to get more supply out there.  They could build more refineries to help the cause as well.  But to say that any political party, or government official, sets the gas prices is completely false.
