That's about $AUS6.00 a gallon. I'm not sure of the currency rates right now.

I noticed, while walking home today, that my local gas station is selling gallons of milk for $3.69.

I also noticed that Premium+ gas was $3.59 a gallon.

Iraqi oil output only reached it's pre-war level in December 2007.

Supply, demand, prices: you know how it works I'm sure.
About time, since the "insurgants" have been sabotaging the oil pipelines and facilities for years so the Iraqi goverment could not get funds rolling in.  A failure to get the oil 'out the door' would keep funds down, keep the people unhappy with life, the occupation, and the government; and that keeps their recruitment up and people less against them.  Basic PsyOps, at a gurrella level.

Yup, I am a bit upset that it just hit $3.09 a gallon here.  (that is about $0.79 a liter), of course, I am here in Texas.

Wether you believe that Peak Oil is behind us or not (I certainly do) we seriously need to find alternate fuels.

95 octance fuel was at 1,44 € /litre this week at my local station, that's about 2,16 US $ per litre = 8,16 US $ per gallon.

So anyone who tells me that he is being "robbed" when paying 3,59 $ / gallon in the US is obviously insane. I mean, that's 0,64 €/litre. I'd kill a homeless guy for such low fuel prices...
And if you think oil prices are high now, you wait until supply really becomes a problem.

Sooner or later, the big oil companies and car manufacturers will have to think of alternative energy ressources, and the earlier we do it, the earlier you can show those middle eastern oil barons the finger and pull your troops out of there to secure "strategic interests". If that is not an incentive, I don't know what would be.

Moreover, those who start investing in alternative energy research now, will be at the forefront of the money-making in the future.
Or do you want to leave that to the Chinese, too ?

I gurantee there's a huge reserve of oil somewhere, but we're not allowed to drill it in case it knackers the environment.

Maybe because we have more people and use more of it.  We also produce our own oil.

This is one of the most ignorant posts Ive ever read on these forums. The US does not control OPEC and Iraqs Oil was off the market even before the Iraq war. Saddam and Sanctions, Oil for Food program, does any of this ring a bell?

I blame China too.  Fuel war will occur within the next decade since it's a national security issue for us and probably the other countries of the world.  and of course the USA won't evolve away from fossil fuel, so I predict Armageddon will be fuel warfare related!
Well you guys use far more than you actually need. A little bit of economising on the gas guzzlers would probably stave off a war by a decade.
True, America has 2% of the worlds oil reserves but uses a staggering 25%! (Or so I was told by Discovery Channel )
