Well I guess 30% of our oil is imported and refined in the gulf area.  So a hurricane would explain [part of the spike. I also heard that the government is opening the reserves.

EDIT: I am not defending the oil companies.

Please, netmasta, don't defend the oil companies.  They raise the price at the hint of a problem but then take their good old time in dropping them back down. 

As I said in another thread, federalize the us oil companies.  They are gouging.  Do you think for a minute that the state or federal governments would allow a food chain that holds the majority of the food supply in a devastated area to do this?

That just means cost of living would go up even more,, the more money put into the system the more everything rises,, not that i wouldnt disagree i def would love too  see a rise in min or wages all together, what gas there is here in western nc is anywhere from 2.99-3.99 ive seen,and prob 30 % gas stations here are out due to ruptures in the gas lines from the hurricanes
