Give it a few weeks. When the prices get low, the states will want to increase taxes on fuel. They are enjoying the high tax income from the high prices, and are already used to the income. Mark my words. ---

Get ready for a price spike. ![http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/storm_graphics/AT07/refresh/AL0708W5_sm2+gif/084813W_sm.gif](http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/storm_graphics/AT07/refresh/AL0708W5_sm2+gif/084813W_sm.gif) With that hurricane track staying mostly over water it will probably be a big one when it gets into the gulf. And if it ends up fucking up New Orleans again it’s time to just bulldoze that fucking city into a park, or better yet, knock down the levees and turn it back into a lake. 🙂 ---

> [@brent\_strong](#): > > Well, for now it’s down to 113.xx. 😃 Yep, but as traders start watching that storm track, and start hearing “cat 3, 4 maybe 5” they’ll start buying. It will be short lived, but it will spike. ---
