There is NO SUPPLY PROBLEM!!! Libya is only 3% and others have more than made up for it. The price goes up because it is based on wall street speculation...the net result is oil companies profit MORE. It is not their fault, but they reap the rewards and the common man pays for it.
I think fuel prices should (within reason) be controlled by the government, not wall street hedge funds looking to trade it. Mainly because some drastic move will effect the entire general economy.
Biodiesel takes a lot more energy to make (you don't just pump it out of the earth) so don't expect any bargain...most times it is .50-100 more than regular diesel. What kills me is that bio-diesel price moves with natural diesel which makes no sense since it is not connected to any political agenda.
It's a rigged game and the common man will pay the piper.
