Gas Prices Expected to Rise 40% More This Summer
The folks at Marketwatch have some tough news for us to swallow. They are predicting gas prices to rise 40% more this Summer. What's wrong with this picture?
Here's what's wrong with it people, they said that gas could rise to $3.86 cents a gallon. I paid $3.97 a gallon this morning! That's over the expected peak price for this Summer. Taking this into consideration here in New York State with the ridiculous gas tax this state charges I really expect that we will be paying about $4.30 a gallon this Summer. Call your state representatives and tell them that they need to repeal the New York State gas tax until prices drop below $3.00 a gallon to at least give us a chance. They are already considering this in North Carolina. Here's the whole story from MSN.
