Some far more sinister things are happening that will forever keep the price of gasoline at the $3+/gallon mark.
Even WM admits that the cost of fuel (both for shipping their cheap goods from Asia to their warehouses and then from their warehouses to their stores) is going to cause problems for them. It'll also cost them in the number of customers who have to choose between buying stuff at WM and paying for gas to drive to work.
That last energy bill that the President signed a few weeks ago isn't going to do diddly for us; neither are the new standards being issued for fuel efficiency. Face it folks, the only way to save money on gas is to use less of it. I also read somewhere that most of the goods and produce you find in the supermarkets travel about 1500 miles to get to you, which means the prices of those goods will also increase; this is another good reason to buy locally where possible. You'll get better quality food for about the same price and help the local economy.
