    People lose their minds in the US when gas was above 5 dollars a gallon. Nothing to do with shareholders but you and me wanting our cheap prices and products.

      Actually, as of right now gas would be $4.90 average because of oil prices if it werent for the ~20% gas subsidy the government has in place. A barrel of oil makes ~19 gallons of gas and is ~$94/barrel. So $94/19 = $4.947 rounded up to $4.95.
