Mr. Rosenberg, I have some news for you, and you might want to sit down for this because it could be a shock to you:
The USA is not the only country in the world.
The USA is not the only country that buys oil.
When the second-largest supplier of oil to the entire world - not just your own country, but every country everywhere on the planet - is shut out of the market, the supply of oil on the planet drops.
And the simple laws of supply and demand say that when supply drops and demand doesn't, prices rise.
This is grade-school math. (Or at least it was when I was in grade school, many years ago.)
Claiming that there is no justification for gas prices going up just shows that you should not be a contestant on "Are You Smarter than a 5th Grader?"
