It doesn't justify a 66%+ spike in just a year's time. Just because we pay lower doesn't mean it suddenly has to go up.
I personally enjoy how they're usin the "Gas is $3 because of the hurricane" excuse. Funny because... gas was trending upwards towards $3 long before that hurricane ever existed.
I bet you they'll milk the hurricane.. watch as they try to get gas even higher. I have a strange feeling we'll be seeing $4 soon (of course, while people still accept it and think nothing of it).
Personally, I only live a mile from work so it doesn't affect me. I'm simply bothered that most people don't care enough to do something about it.
