Not to piss in your pool or anything but i read a recent report this morning. It's the Goldman Sachs report. It consists of like 30+ analysts and feds. Crude is at $55/ barrel right now. Within the next 3 years, they forecast it to be between $50 & $105 per barrel!!! That was a conservative amount they stated. So if gas here were i'm at is $2.28/ 87oct and it's $55/ barrel today, that would be about $4.50+ gallon. Scare tactic? Could be. Reality? Very well could be. Don't want to ruin anyones day, but i think it's something we should all take very seriously.
I also read something years ago before any of this even started with energy prices going up and someone predicted there was going to be a huge global war over energy. Yeah we live in a shitty world these days.
