Financial and Political Data manufactured to make us think we should be paying more for ANYTHING gas? unreal. This must be like the Shortages in the Gulf, and American Energy claiming everything from being a little short on production, to having a spill at sea causing the 2 plus dollar increases we have seen to gas over the last decades. Its funny how Most of us over 30 can remember when there were no real cause for increases, Gas and Petroleum was just about the same regardless of what took place in the refining process, and or the shipment and logistics. It just seems that now days anything from a light bulb going out in a plant to a flat tire on a tanker truck, cause price increases to anything petroleum. Is big oil Lobbyist ever going to slip up and leave room for some of these electric inventions to actually take hold? We can send a robot to Mars and operate it for months/years, but we just cannot figure out how to manufacture batteries that withstand the load needed for electric cars to be practical? This is in-fact the big hold up as defined by the industry, " battery size " and " battery Capacity " and "cost to manufacture these batteries" are the very reason Gas is still more practical, have we heard better excuses? Obvious suppression of any electrical breakthroughs and inventions, along with little to know recognition in the scientific world, and or mainstream media, all contribute to Big Oil's secure future, while we set back and hear their independent studies on just why gas, natural gas, anything refined from crude, will be increasing yet again. And as their studies show, we have really not been paying as much as we thought anyway, they have slipped up, and now its time to really pay.....Gee thanks!
