As you can see from this graph, oil was at $140 bbl summer of 2008. I know that the sub prime housing crash caused the crash in oil prices, but what the hell caused the price to rise so damn high in the first place?

Greedy oil executives and oil futures speculators.

Maybe the big guys going around telling people this and that, knowing good and well it isn't true, but that people will still believe it and throw money at it. My guess of course.

The proliferation of the F-250 with the extra 400 pound Yeti coolers on the bed of the truck.
