Over the last month, gas prices have shot up at the pump, averaging $1.41 per gallon throughout the country and much higher in some areas.
Why have gas prices gone up?
Choose one:
•The war in Afghanistan could disrupt oil supplies: prices up.
•The rioting in the Middle East could disrupt oil supplies: prices up.
•Strike in Venezuela could disrupt oil supplies: prices up.
•Saddam Hussein could disrupt oil supplies: prices up.
•George Bush has a cold, could disrupt oil supplies: prices up.
Actually, in the real world, the price of a barrel of oil fell from $28 to $23.47. So why did prices go up?
