A SAMPLING OF YOUR RESPONSES:
This rise in gasoline price is a misnomer by the President and his staff. The price of unleaded gas on the spot market is around 80c per gallon in NY and the WV gas tax is around 43c and Ashland and Exxon to make their profits. There should be cars that get 50-75 mpg but the auto and gas interests will not let this happen any time soon. This is a short range adjustment.

Was going on vacation to New York, but gas prices are higher there.

My driving habits have changed back in the late 1980's due to the greed of the oil cartels. No vacations, no unnecessary travel. Otherwise i cannot afford it.
Cloyd Thorn, Parkersburg
Gas prices are gonna get even higher.Iraq mandates this. On another note, your depiction of Police Officers as Cops, seems to be disrespectful,as well as showing your literacy, might as well call them Pigs. I believe they deserve a little more respect.

I'll try to make one trip do when it might have been 2 or 3.. But have to
Vincent, Ohio
No I wont be changing my driving habits much. I would try and remember to run all errans at the same time. Walk to close locations, such as class, that is just a couple blocks away.

You gotta do what you gotta do.
Terri Y., South Charleston
This state is getting to be the worst, I recently traveled to Florida and gas prices were cheaper EVERYWHERE but here. I am moving out of this state and make a better life for myself, before it takes me down with it.
Rob Wroten, St. Albans
I will only drive when it is an absolute necessity and then I will shop for gas at the cheapest station even if it means driving an extra 2 miles out of the way.
