You are right, oil is way too high. I wish I knew when it would come down to a reasonable level, but I fear we are looking at the future. I know Europe has been living with these and higher prices for a long time. I don't think they have any sympathy for us.
Part of the problem is that it has happened so quickly - if we had eased up to these prices over a few years, then we'd all be better prepared to adapt with smaller more efficient cars and the like. But no, it's been WHAM - here it is and no one is prepared.
