Over the Years gas prices have risen, fallen, been stable and also been off the charts. It is time to mandate gas prices cannot go over a certain price tag.. Consumers who are low income and medium income have a hard enough time paying for gas over the $3.50 range especially if you are working 30-40 hours a week. Most people have medium to long commutes everyday to work and it really puts a dent into everyone's pocket book...
Lets put it into prospective in Chicago (taxes are high enough) to begin with gas prices here usually hang around the $3.50 range it was low as $2.99 then a "Refinery" plant in Indiana just happened to go into unscheduled servicing knocking out half the midwest region yet it is the biggest refinery.. Yet Crude prices are below $40 per barrel.. very convenient..
