Gas is $2.35 here in Delaware. One day at the very bottom it was $2.01; none of the gas stations ever dropped below $2.00...Instead the "people in charge" decided that they could temporarily increase the gas tax to help the state and that it would be ok because people's budgets had already "absorbed" the higher gas prices. So instead of giving everyone a break, taxes were increased to keep everyone paying more while the government raked in the extra cash.
