Gas in Michigan and parts of the Midwest jumped to over $4 a gallon this morning. Reason if you believe what they're saying is a pipe line in WI is down along with a couple of refineries so they say. In a lot of the Midwest gas is higher than Diesel. It's time they build some refineries in the Dakota's for the northern half of the country were the oil is, instead of building a pipe line to the Gulf so every time a storm comes into the Gulf they can shut it down.

They don't want to build more refineries and make supply more local.
It would drastically lower prices. They like the game they are playing.

About like being in Congress and voting your self benefits that everyone else pays for, but can't get.

I was wondering why gas went up $.70 a gallon in 2 weeks?!!!! And you know the bad part? we will never even notice the disruption in the pipeline.....and if we did it wouldn`t be for months from now!

Over the 4th gas was $3.39.......today it is $4.15
