Gas & Oil News

I can think of no consumer product, or for that matter any product or service, that won’t feel the squeeze of higher oil prices. Every single thing one can buy at one time or another is transported by ship, rail, truck or car. As the price of oil goes up the cost to manufacture and distribute everything will go up. This increase in cost is passed along to the end user through higher prices across the board. Compounding this inflationary problem is the fact that the average consumer has less disposable income because they are paying a lot more for gasoline. There is only one course of action that may be able to slow down this “Dooms Day” scenario! We have got to get more miles out of the gasoline we buy, and conserve gasoline every way we can! This is a “Global” problem!
