"big oil" isn't the culprit for high oil prices. When the oil companies have less than 2% of the world's reserves, they have to go into the market and buy the oil that is refined into gasoline. Those prices are a function of supply and demand. speculators actually serve a viable purpose in any market. Demand plays the biggest role , we continue even at these prices to use more and more oil every day. United States uses more oil that the next 7 countries combined

For the week ended June 6, crude-oil inventories fell by 4.6 million barrels, or 1.5 percent, to 302.2 million barrels, which was 13.5 percent below year-ago levels, the Energy Department's Energy Information Administration said in its weekly report.
