The question is it going to get better or worse?
Given the 2 candidates and the current state of the legislation I would bet it gets worse. When a loaf of bread is 10.00 and milk is 15 dollars a gallon because oil is skyrocketing people will be mad enough to bring the kind of change we need, not a minute sooner. It's a shame it has to get to that point.
There is an Indian gas station here in Fort McDowell that is 50 cents more than any gas station in the Phoenix area. People wait in line to fill up there. I'm convinced that 90% of people don't even look at gas prices, but they look at food prices. When it costs 50.00 to run in the store and get bread, milk, a box of cereal, and a pound of ground beef people will get mad.
