Huh??? You really must be kidding us right? OK, under what mindset does paying a higher price for anything a good thing? Your wanting higher prices (really, think about it given your reasoning), makes no sense. I'd rather pay a lower price. Do you know how the price of the gas you pay for here in the US gets inflated from the wells where it comes from?
