On msnbc.com today, an article about gas prices going up at the pump said that American motorists spend $1 Billion (YES, with a B!!) a day on gasoline.
"Right now, American motorists are spending about $1 billion a day for gasoline. By the end of the year, they will collectively pay about $250 million more per day for gasoline than they did a year ago, according to Tom Kloza, publisher and chief oil analyst at Oil Price Information Service."
Can you believe that??? This year refineries are pulling back because the demand for gasoline is still weak yet the price of the crude oil they buy is going up quickly. So, they will refine less gas which means what is out there will cost more to us. Not so lovely.
But in cities like Spokane, what are the options? You can't buy a gas-sipping car for the work week and then have a truck/SUV that can pull a boat/camper/jet ski in the summer. I guess we will all have to cut back again...just in time for the holiday. ughhhh!!!!!!!
