Why does this not surprise anyone? With gas at $4 a gallon it affects almost anything we do. Everything is no costing more because of it. And what is our government doing? They are suspending adding any more oil to our strategic reserve! This amounts to absolutely nothing. It's like trying to plug a hole in the dyke with a wad of bubble gum. I don't understand how the government does nothing as the oil companies post the most obscene profits ever recorded.
