Why are gas prices so high sLm(iS)mY<3?
The major causes of high gas prices include the increased demand for oil in places like China and India, high gasoline taxes, civil unrest in Venezuela, war in the Middle East, political instability in Nigeria, and too few refineries in the U.S. Demand is kept high by people who prefer the comfort and safety of large trucks and SUV’s regardless of their lower fuel economy.
