Is that 16 cents US? If so, that's about 60 cents per gallon for 95 gas.

The U.S. has plenty of gasoline, so much that we are a net exporter of gasoline, diesel, jet fuel..., blame the Fed's Quantitative Easing(for inflation) and the growth in china for the high prices. But blame the White House (past and present administrations) for the U.S. high unemployment that results in lower demand in the U.S.

NEW YORK (AP) – For the first time, the top export of the United States, the world's biggest gas guzzler, is — wait for it — fuel.

By David J. Phillip, AP

In this Nov. 10, 2010 file photo, oil refineries are shown in this aerial view, in Deer Park, Texas. For the first time, the top export of the United States is fuel.

Measured in dollars, the nation is on pace this year to ship more gasoline, diesel, and jet fuel than any other single export, according to U.S. Census data going back to 1990. It will also be the first year in more than 60 that America has been a net exporter of these fuels.

You Sir are very correct. Gas is expensive due to the deliberate devaluation of our US Dollar. Combine that with the very likely prospect of another war which we can only pay for by printing more money, and voila, $5-6 gas (let's not even discuss the merits of such a conflict).
