It will certainly happen. The problem may be that the administration wanted to control the price through oppressive taxes. Those taxes may not be possible. With other administration policies weakening the dollar, the abandonment of domestic production, and our foreign non-policy, it isn't going to be direct taxation on gas that drives the price up and out of control. When it happens, and it will, the administration will do what it does best; something completely destructive and nearly irreversible. Impose massive "windfall" taxes on the oil companies then "bail" them out. More government seizure of private business. No worries though. This is what the people voted for. This is what they wanted.

I bet it's going to be higher than $5 on the account the government is looking to tax everything again and again. If they don't increase taxes on gas, they will find another way to tax your driving.
