21. There's something very weird going on up here
with our gas prices this year. Last year we were running about even with the average down there, or a little below, but this year we've staye consistently above, and by a lot. Some places out in the Bush were paying $8 and $9 dollars a gallon for a while, although I would assume that they're starting to come down now a bit. Anchorage's high this year was $4.44.

4. Prices are not falling in this area...
To reflect the drop on the markets. Someone needs their collective ass kicked.

13. Sounds like here! Only we have natural gas. I have 4 wells right behind me
This state sold its residents mineral rights years ago and all of it gets shipped
out other places. I think someone said it was about 6.00 acubic foot. Not 4 sure though.

17. Check the nationwide map
http://www.gasbuddy.com/gb_gastemperaturemap.aspx

And while it's not a 1-to-1 match, isn't it at least a little interesting that some of the lowest prices are to be found in swing states?

18. $3.59/gal here
still sux.

it's a sham, hoax, out of our control, and is anyone's bet what it will be at anytime, anyplace,
at any cost. The less we drive, the more they can charge.

as much as i'd like to believe we have the power of the purse, they till control the spigot.
Who is going to give first?

34. gas 3.30 and dropping by measures daily, we've paid 4.63 within these...
last some months. I understand the 'supply & demand' thing, but :wtf: If the production cost didn't quadruple? Back it all off it's a scam anyhow!! Modulate this world's impact by way of a most earnest appeal to small carbon footprints

44. $2.68 at the local Kroger pumps on Saturday. Now that it is lower
than when all this price rise started, I wonder when all the food prices, etc. will come down? Everything went up fast enough. It always takes longer coming down, eh? I hate greed.

45. Ain't it funny how the BATTLEGROUND STATES seem to have the lowest prices?
Don't tell me the neocon oil barons aren't using fuel to manipulate the voters.
