Prices could spike another 60 cents or more by May. "I think it's going to be a chaotic spring, with huge price increases in some places," says Tom Kloza of the Oil Price Information Service. Kloza expects average prices to peak at $4.05, although he and other industry trackers say prices could be sharply higher in some markets.Obama needs prices higher, they are only up 83% since he took over.
Its the only way to make those plug in cars nobody wants more attractive.
