Gas Prices

Yeah the laid off oil patch workers are working somewhere else but the people we hired are at about 50% of what they were making. Some traveled far to make the oil money now they will have have travel to make near that. South and west Texas ain't the place to make money working for someone else outside of a boom unless you have the needed skills.

.98/L for gas and 1.04/litre of diesel, here in the Socialist Republic of Nova Scotia.
Lower gas is killing the Canadian dollar and lots of people are out of work. Personally it's better, but for the Country? Not so much. I do believe that money saved on gas/diesel though is still going into the economy in other area's so it's not all bad. I'll take the lower prices any day though, afterall prices of everything that's trucked in will lower too right? LOL!

It looks like we are way below the "nominal" inflation adjusted price of $2.62/gallon.

I paid $1.69 in Burke Va (right outside Washington DC.) over the weekend. I was surprised. Its still 1.81-1.89 here in southern IL. But if you go across the river to MO its been as low as 1.55.
