And not JUST the intestinal kind either, but rather the kind we put into our cars.
Question: Did we find a brand new, huge reservoir of gas and I just missed hearing/reading about it? Has the demand for gas suddenly gone down? Have people’s needs to get from point A to point B diminished?
I’m asking these questions because I’m seriously confused – how can the price of gas be the same dollar amount it was three years ago?!
Gas in our area is now down to $1.69. Why has it dropped so much and why can’t it STAY this dollar amount? Our fight for gas makes national headlines and yet, it’s the lowest it’s been in three years – why?
I mean, YAY!! More money to pour into the economy, but I’m suspicious as to the reasons it dropped.

Actually, yes, the demand has dropped a huge amount. Not just in the US where it has dropped, but the economic crisis has hit China very hard. And increases Chinese demand was one of the biggest reasons the price was so high.
Like you, I’m not complaining.
