They were reporting that gas prices may drop by $0.75 by the summer. BIG FRIGGIN' DEAL!!!!
I love how they parade a circus of so-called "experts" to explain that gas prices climb faster than a monley with its tail on fire, but fall slower than a feather in an updraft.
Fox25 news had on some shmuck from Exxon, and he sure played the part, making sound like we would be hitting the lottery when prices start falling.

Apparently no one can simply and HONESTLY explain why prices rose so quickly and will (hopefully) drop so slowly.
It's probably because there is no simple and honest answer that wouldn't be a criminal indictment of the oil companies and the "speculators.
