America wake up. This game is rigged, and Romney is part of the folks who have stolen this country and they do not want to give a dime back. The president starts talking about going after oil subsidies....and a week later they run up of gas prices. I am now becoming more clear that my Republican Party has been taken over by the Oligarchy, and my role is to get my fellow republicans to realize these folks are not Americans....they have no loyalty to our countrymen nor to this nation. They are robber barons, and where is Teddy with his big stick....instead we have Mitten the Kitten who is going to give this country away, and then lie that these gifts to the wealthy will magically help Americans....nonsense....look at those gas prices.

So the Gov of Utah raised gas prices everywhere? Do you really believe what you type here? Maybe you need to wear a helmet. All the time. And stop eating paint chips off of windowsills.

Corporate America is stronger than almost anyone can imagine. And Romney would be the biggest Corporate stooge in our country's history. But it would be an uphill struggle to best the record of George W. Bush.

I just heard the last unexplained big price spike in 2009 was caused by a drunk trader who bought up huge amounts of futures, and when confronted the next day by his brokers, he said he blacked out....he lost his license to trade for five years because of this episode..........and you think there are rational reasons for these jumps in pricing.....sorry, the American people are at war.....and we are losing.

You do not think this game is rigged....I suppose you think the Hunt brothers did not try to corner the silver market, and that OPEC was put together for the great parties they have, and Twisted Evil

Paranoid.....have you been reading my posts for seven years? I saw the bankruptcy reform act get rammed through which defied our founding father's directions to guarantee uniform bankruptcy laws, but instead Congress was bought off by credit card companies, Banks, and Wall Street to create a middle class who has become mass indentured servants, and then at least 2-3 trillion of propping up shareholders of banks....who are closing 7 and 8 percent mortgages, and collecting on 14-24% credit cards.....I am paranoid, because you think Romney is going to win....hell, it may already be too late to care who wins the election......the American people have lost their sovereignty......and you think it is Obama who is the problem.....it is the deep slumber of folks who think $6 gas at the pumps makes rational sense when oil prices have been so low, and the economy is still not close to consuming oil like we once did......The problems this country has is that you quit thinking at some point......and there is nothing I can do to help you realize what is happening in your life....if you keep thinking it is the black guy in the White House....think about what has happened to this country leading up to the 2008 crash....what did Obama have to do with it......

I'm not sure the republicans had anything to do w/ it. The gas dealers thought they wouldn't be getting anymore and jacked up the prices. The President has nothing to do w/ gas prices.

Paranoia is a slippery slope 2SO. Gas prices are ridiculously high because oil companies are ridiculously greedy. There's also that sticky little problem of inadequate refinery capacity but lets not allow new ones to be built, Oh No!

I see you getting more and more obcessed with your hate for romney, your hate for romney is greater than my dislike for obama. At least I waited till obama was elected before I started blaming him for stuff. you trying to blame a gas shortage on romney already. had you had done your homework on the situation you would have known like me that there was a refinery fire and that california uses a special eviroment blend of gas they just cant get anywhere. So they have had to go and get a special request to go ahead and use the winter blend to ease these prices.

you should also remember the far left greenies want high gas prices, it makes people drive less and saves the planet. so in a way its poetic justice for this to happen in cali where there are so many greenies. they got thier 5$ gas and didnt like it did they LOL

while we are on cali, I think the electorial system needs to be revised to make all states equal. They have to much say so in the electorial process.

The firm lost millions on that trade. That's the beauty of futures markets. You have to find a new buyer in order to close your contracts lest you actually take delivery of physical oil.

Analysts said that the record-breaking climb of California gasoline prices could end as early as today, if the state manages to avoid any new refinery problems.Analysts said the price jump was already slowing down even as Gov. Jerry Brown decided Sunday to ease the state's gas-blend requirements to allow refiners to process the less expensive winter blend of fuel three weeks early.

California's special blend of gas is one reason for highest prices in the nation

When accidents damaged three refineries just as the new gas became available in mid-March, Californians' demand for gasoline suddenly exceeded what the oil companies could produce.

"And there was nowhere else to turn for additional supply. ... California is walking a fine line by insisting on a unique smog-reducing gas formula while also trying to satisfy its voracious thirst for gasoline. A supply interruption or a major refinery accident could again send prices spiraling upward

Because the new gas is sold only in California

This isnt politics. some people are trying to make this problem politics. romney hasnt done anything here and its insane to say so.

if politics were going to be used to point a finger it would have to be the lefts demand for this special gas and not permiting/building new refineries.no new refineries built in California since 1980,

I wonder what will happen when ExxonMobil is elected to the senate. Don't laugh, Romney has already declared that a Corporation is a person. Next we will have General Electric and General Dynamics elected to the House of Representatives. The money these three will save due to not having to bribe Congressmen will be astronomical.

The only thing politicians can do about gasoline prices is lie about our eventual energy independence.

I have hopes that technology will release many more years of oil from tight shale formations like the Bakken Formation in North Dakota. And, enhanced oil recovery technology will help us get stranded oil that older technology could not access in depleted oil fields.

But, it costs more to get oil deep in the oceans, in the Arctic, in shale formations. Therefore the price per gallon will naturally go higher--it is inevitable. Both Obama and Romney can only blow smoke on the issue of energy.

California's gas prices are tied to 1) refinery issues and 2) the type of gasoline the libtarded, econut losers in Cali only allow in their cars. Those two items in itself and all related to California and only happening in California are the sources of their issues. You're smarter than that...or I thought so. Really though, you only want Obama to get reelected because of Obamacare. That's your only dog in this hunt. We can't afford it. You know that good and well.

The only thing politicians can do about gasoline prices is lie about our eventual energy independence.

I have hopes that technology will release many more years of oil from tight shale formations like the Bakken Formation in North Dakota. And, enhanced oil recovery technology will help us get stranded oil that older technology could not access in depleted oil fields.

But, it costs more to get oil deep in the oceans, in the Arctic, in shale formations. Therefore the price per gallon will naturally go higher--it is inevitable. Both Obama and Romney can only blow smoke on the issue of energy.

...or if Obama would quit having drilling moratoriums on Gulf wells.
