As gasoline prices rise, innocent citizens get desperate and will go as far as drilling in your pipes for oil, or in other cases, directly in your gas tank.
Fuel prices are expected to rise through the spring and summer.
If we do see any noticeable, consistent decreases, the earliest will be early autumn 2022.
The state of Texas will have drilled enough oil be then willing to trade with states willing.
This, coupled with less driving & traffic in the colder seasons will lower gas prices back down to around $3 a gallon (or less), and even more inexpensive than that going through the year 2023.
