Someone explain gas to me

I'm thinking it has more to do with politics than world news

so someone explain why gas costs so much to me. As far as I know, it's because China and India are becoming more powerful (something to do with the MADE IN CHINA thing our products seem to have the nasty habit of having)and now want cars and the same standard of living as Americans. Also because Americans only want big and hefty cars and the dollar going down in value

am I missing anything?

"Look it up, we've dropped like 10% since 2005."

HUH? did you just pull that out of you're ass?

There is no single reason why oil hit such a high price, its many. Declines in production, unstable global politics and speculators to name a few. But blaming it all on one is dishonest.
