The House passed an energy bill on Thursday that does not include a renewable standard for utilities or increase fuel economy standards. Gasoline up more than 11% this week By Lisa Sanders DALLAS (MarketWatch) -- An unexpected drop in U.S. gasoline supplies and refinery concerns drove an 11% increase in May gasoline this week. The contract closed Friday on the New York Mercantile Exchange up 2%, or 3.23 cents, at $1.6523 per gallon. Gasoline also provided support to the other energy futures. June crude rose 2.2% on the session and 6.4% for the week to close at $55.39 per barrel. May heating oil closed at $1.5451 per gallon, up 0.7% on the session and 5.8% for the week. May natural gas gained 2.8% for the week and 2.3% on the session to close at $7.195 per million British thermal units. and Bush continues to push OIL...TAX CUTS for OIL COMPANIES (like they aren't making enough BLOOD money off us at the moment...) and pushes to pass a screwed up 'energy' bill that will do NOTHING to alleviate the entire problem....one that could be 1/2'd with legislating MORE MILEAGE PER VEHICLE...It's just mind boggling
