| Is gas going to go back up to $4? My friends insist that gas prices are going to rise again after the election. Do you agree with them? They feel it is political strategy that the prices recently dropped.

| Most likely will go back up a lot quicker than they came down. Probably will go back to around where they were or HIGHER. A SURE bet! |

| Gas isn't coming down because of the election...! Right now, they're producing a lot, but, people aren't driving. The barrels have come down. I don't think it will go back to $4/gallon, there was just a page on aol that seem to think they may go up to around $3/gallon and level off..If more people lose jobs, people will be driving less yet..so, they quit producing as much, and raise prices again |

| You a right. The gas prices have nothing to do with the election. It's all economics. Will prices go up after the election? Probably at some point but will probably go back up to those $4 or more levels especially if one of the candidates gets elected... |

| My husband heard some "expert" (I say that loosely) say on the radio that it is actually predicted that gas will go to under $2 and maybe even under $1. Who knows!!! I gave up on caring... it's gonna do what it's gonna do and we have to have gas, so I just go with it.

That is exactly how I feel! It dosent matter how high the gas prices go, because everyone needs gas to go anywhere, especially to work. When it was over $4 I just stopped looking at the prices because I knew I had to get to work!

Donating YT 500 Club Member | It will go back up. The high prices we were all paying a few weeks back although influenced by the supply/demand rule was also in large part due to the speculators betting on the oil prices continuing to rise.
