[QUOTE="Tom Schindler, post: 744514, member: 56140"] Oil companies HAVE to make a profit or they will not stay in business. Who is responsible for the price of gas? China. They are the reason oil is at $97.00/bbl. Keep supporting the Chinese economy and the prices will go up. It is a domino effect, you are right about that. We send money to China by buying thier products. They buy energy. We buy more Chinese goods, they buy more energy. We buy even more Chinese goods, they buy even more energy. They also buy steel to build buildings and war ships. They buy wood to build houses. They compete with us to buy the things we also use. Supply and demand. Less of a supply, more of a demand, the prices will go up. the only thing you can do is buy as little Chinese made stuff as you can. One person might not make a difference, but it is a start. The more people that do the same, the slower the prices will go up. Tom Tom [/QUOTE]
