Winstonm Posted July 15, 2006 Report Share Posted July 15, 2006 Yesterday the price of oil reached $78 a barrel. How about we all chip into a pot and pay off the one who comes closest to the day that oil hits $100....then maybe at least one of us could afford to drive that day. Put me down for July 7, 2007. 777...doesn't that win the jackpot? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

helene_t Posted July 15, 2006 Report Share Posted July 15, 2006 When it hits $200 per Gallon, gas will cost about the same in the US as it costs in Europe now. But you're generally richer than we are. You will be able to afford it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerben42 Posted July 15, 2006 Report Share Posted July 15, 2006 Oil at $100? My guess would be the Thursday before Easter, 2007. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You will be able to afford it. 200$ a barrel=10$ a gallon oil I think we will notice at 5$=100$ barrel if it stays there for a long period of time.$10 will bring about massive change for many, not all good. It will make everything very expensive and consumers would cut back, jobs would be lost, pain felt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whereagles Posted July 15, 2006 Report Share Posted July 15, 2006 Nothing special will happen because oil is at 100, 200 or 500 for that matter. The economy adapts and goes on in "business as usual" fashion. The real pain comes when supply shortages set in. That's the turnpoint.

Rain Posted July 16, 2006 Report Share Posted July 16, 2006 I think if it goes pass $100 the possibility of a war to annex oil rich countries may become a reality. On trumped up excuses perhaps. But its going to happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But its going to happen. Already happened, and no need to be so high. What were 9/11 (related to Iraq) and WMD but trumped up excuses?
