Imagine if you will filling a drum with water from your tap and shipping it back to Saudi Arabia. How much would you have to charge to break even on that.
And no I have never worked for an oil company, I'm just looking for the real cause of our problems and have looked at this and moved on.

There is no doubt in my mind that once we have all adjusted by switching to bicycles, water will be the next commodity manipulated by the 'speculators'.

Report in the paper 2 days ago. Major fire in a California refinery - predicted gas above $4 againon the west coast.

Yep, jumped 5 cents yesterday. Odd how th price alwaysjumps instantly but never comes down until the station actually has to buy the next load.

It already has, My rich cousin lives in Croft0n Maryland. Drinks bottled water because "Crofton water does not taste good" funny thing is Crofton is considering bottling their water for sale because it was rated some of the best.

Divide the current price of gas by ten.
Roll back the clock to when gas was that price.
What has NOT risen by a factor of at least ten in that same time period ?

It's your money being worth less. Most commodities stay pretty close to a gold index.
Between Iran and the talk of QE3 it's will stay high for awhile.
