Camarillo, Calif. (AP) -- Gasoline prices have gone up an average of 20 cents per gallon nationwide in the past two weeks.

The retail price of self-serve regular gas rose to $2.55 cents per gallon, according to the latest Lundberg Survey released Sunday.

... Nationwide, the highest average price for regular gas was $3.10 per gallon in San Francisco. The lowest, at $2.22 per gallon, was in Anchorage, Alaska.

9. What I want to know is, where is the outrage? Do we have no memory or

ability do do simple arithmetic? Why isn't anybody in Washington even talking about this, do we have no representation in DC anymore?

13. The only representatives we have

Edited on Mon Mar-12-07 12:56 PM by A wise Man

in these times are ourselves. Somehow we must take our country back from these lying greedy thieves by any means necessary. I'm getting sick of being robbed by these oil companies and their lame ancient excuses. They are thieves, and Dick Cheney is behind it all. Bush is too dumb to come up that idea.

10. Well at least its good for the environment.

Nothing slows the sales of gas guzzling vehicles like higher gas prices.

It also encourages investments in alternative fuels.
