or preplanned ?Is it just a coincidence that after presidency of oil men, gas prices are at record highs??
Is it coincidence that after years of China's favored nation status that, they are consuming more oil. Oil is what drives a solid economy... This is a known fact... It is also an equally known fact that increase in demand results in an increase in price...





As to the cause of China's economic expansion, I would not necessarily look at the current administration, the former Clinton administration seems to be a much more guilty party...Is it just a coincidence that after presidency of oil men, gas prices are at record highs??
A valid, and penetrating question. And with oil now recognized as an infinite commodity, and getting scarcer in the world, is it just a coincidence that the US and her coalition of the willing is in Iraq?
The world economy is driving the price up. Demand has gone up so much over the past 10-15 years that the price was bound to follow. It'll keep going up because the world economy will continue to expand and more people will drive.
Since Pelosi, Murtha, Reid, Clinton, and michael moore all own stock in halliburton, it appears that the presidency has nothing to do with it....
I know that when Bush started out, oil was at $20 a barrel and gas was $1.22.





Now--8 years later--we are sitting at $128 a barrel and our gas is now hitting $4 for regular. (And diesel is $4.75.)
...it is more than obvious, there are no coincidences when it comes to the government....
No, it's cause and effect
