You figure, for yourself: in terms of your wallet/purse dollars ...right now!
"..under my plan, energy prices will necessarily skyrocket!" -- o'Déjà VuCurrent price of gas/gal @ price per/barrel crude=$113.00 which equals:
$4.25/gal of gas (local)
Prediction: Low = $152/bbl of crude equals:
$ 5.24/gal gas.
Prediction: High = $182/bbl = $1.73/gal gas more than today will equal:
$5.98/gal gas!

A general rule of thumb: A dollar increase in the West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude oil price per barrel will result in a 2.5-cent increase in the gasoline price per gallon and the diesel fuel price per gallon. Likewise, a dollar decrease in the WTI crude oil price per barrel will result in a 2.5-cent decrease in the gasoline price per gallon and the diesel fuel price per gallon.
