Low gas prices are helpful to both my business and recreation, especially in a state (MT) where towns can be a hundred miles apart.

What I don't understand is how prices could be 25% up in the last year. Weren't they supposed to go down with our President? I mean he has opened more areas to drilling, reduced regulations, even supported starting oil exports from the U.S. so much is being produced.

Why the heck are prices going so high. Is he letting the big oil companies and refiners screw us? Did I vote for the wrong guy?
