Price of gas dropped about a dime
I was quite surprised when I drove into town today to run errands to find that the price of gas had dropped about a dime since yesterday! I was really glad to see it because I needed to fill up my tank and also fill up some portable gas tanks for our lawn mowers! I had heard that the price of gas was dropping a little bit, and the “experts” about the economy seem to think that is a bad sign for the economy. They said it had something to do with reduced demand, and if the price keeps going down then the folks that are investing in alternative energy will stop investing in the alternative energy. Well, I’m not quite sure why that could be – I sure was happy to see the little bit of relief it brought to MY wallet! As for people investing in alternative energy, I think they should just keep on investing in it because we need it desperately. I have not enjoyed being held “hostage” at the gas pump due to high oil prices!
