it's not just china buying oil and pushing up the price. it's the american dollar that is losing it's buying power. look at exchange rates or the price of gold. the markets that determine the value of a dollar don't feel the US economy is producing enough so it's eroding the value of a dollar.

america imports too many finished goods from asia, too much foreign oil, and exports good-paying manufacturing work and debt. high gas prices are just the first sign that this kind of economy just isn't sustainable

OPEC's been spreading their money around more too. when the terrorist invest their money someplace else, there's less money for america. that pushes up interest rates and will put everyone in a tight spot with all those deficits, mortgages, credit cards.

it's going to get really bad.
