It is not demand for oil that is the only driving force behind the spike! If you pay more attention, you will notice that the Dollar is on a free-dive and this coupled with ultra-low interest rates is fueling inflation! Petrol hasn't gone up that much, it's just that the USDollar buys less and less of it! The real blame lays with big government, who decided to kill the dollar and started printing money like there's no tomorrow...You have to pay for the wars from somewhere right?The only reason we're not in like Zimbabwe, is that the USD is still the world's reserve currency-countries still keep large amounts of USDs. Imagine if they dump them! Talk about not $5/gal but $500! So take it up with your elected officials and ask for a Strong Dollar!!!
