for the last 8 years all i heard was oil is high because bush is in office and he is linnig his friends pockets ...well why is it high now

Not talking 'bout the price. I am talking about the profit made when the price goes up. This is a quasi monopoly. If they charge 10% profit on a gallon of gas, then think how much more they make at $4 a gallon. Should give them an incentive to keep the price a certain level. After $3 a gallon, they get 5% profit on gallon, and the gov't gets 5% profit. We could start eating away at that deficit. They could easily get by on 5 billion profit a quarter per oil company.
