Gas is pretty much artificially priced.. it's a commodity controlled via commodities trade, and greed... People were willing to pay more for the commodity, the price rose.. that's how it works... If it were a controlled utility that didn't have a corrupt distribution system it would be much cheaper but that isn't the case, and neither of the two major parties are doing *ANYTHING* about it. -- Michael J.
