...Oil went over $133 a barrel today and I saw an analyst report that it could go as high as $200 a barrel. It seems that when George W became President I remember oil in the 20 to 30 dollar range. There really doesn't seem to be a shortage of oil, supply meets demand. So WTF? Why are prices going up daily like this? I used to think it was due...
