I look at it this way, assuming that a gas company wants to make 5% profit 
on every gallon of gas, it's in thier interest to have thier costs go up 
5% because then thier profit goes up too.

Instead of making 5cents on gas that costs them $1.00 to make they make 6 
cents profit on gas that cost them $1.05 to make (Or similar, you get my 
point =)


Also, the gas we have now was made with oil that cost $50/barrel instead 
of oil that cost $65/barrel, yet we're being charged the $65/barrel price!
