All right now. Finally we saw gas under 3$ a gallon. What causing such a drop, and is it a real relief for Americans?

I don’t want to talk about the economic situation, about the crisis and other things, it will be topics for future posts, but I want to bring your attention on some history and track the gas prices from previous election times.

Well, to answer why and for how long we will enjoy “lower” gas prices we should go back, and track the prices of gas. As a consumers we saw constant growth for years, but something special happen to cause temporarily drop in gas prices recently and every 4th year. What something special happened every 4th year?

You guessed it. ELECTION! And we are in an election year, and in our opinion drop in gas prices and oil, caused mainly by close Election Day. That’s right, before every election we witness so called “cheap gas”. But we want to warn you, if you go back and track the prices, you can see that the prices re-gain all its losses within 2-3 months after the new president move into the White House. We do not want to speculate on the potential president and/or who will be better president, but we want you to be aware and prepare for after election reality. And sure thing gas prices will be one of them.
