In the News: Gas Prices

The gas prices will eventually go back up dramtically because we are so dependent on them. We use them for everything and most importantly to get around so them being down is just a little break that we are getting , but it will not last very long.

The gas prices were so high before because they were not being managed properly so that we would be prepared for the economic crisis that came and put the country and its leader in a serious bind and all that he could do was put a higher price on such a necessity because we were using it up. If more information had been shared to the public and th government would have put more effort for us to use and have alternative sources of fuel theywould not have gone so high.

I would first pull away from the dependency of having to use gas as our only source of fuel. Gas will run out one day and as president I would makesure that we have an alternate source will help us to keep up our normal lives or maybe inhance it. Most definitely I would keep the prices low and managable and not cause a state of panic by raising them to where it would go down into the history books. We need to try new things or the worst will come and I don't think we are ready to handle that.
