Oh Great. Here we go again. Refinery busted down. Needs to be fixed. Gas gotta go up again. This I read in the news this morning.
I remember a few years ago when gas kept rising. Every couple weeks or so a refinery would break down, a pipe line would burst, a ship transporting crude would run aground, It seemed to be happening non stop. Each time it resulted in gasoline going up.
Back in the early 1900's the coal industry big shots got greedy. The alternative of petroleum products began to look so good that it replaced coal in many applications. Now the petroleum industry is increasingly greedy. Too bad there is not an alternative with the power and clout to replace it.

There are plenty of alternatives but it will only happen when we 1. Run out of oil 2. Gas is $5.00-6.00 /gal 3. D.C. politicians will think about their constituents instead of campaign funds.
