It Costs How Much? Gas Price Perplexity in America

Gas price hikes infuriate many Americans, but a sense of humor could be the consumer’s best weapon—at least in the battle for information. This ABC News program takes a lighthearted yet revealing look at a truly maddening form of inflation, addressing two simple but thorny questions: What, specifically, drives up the cost of gas? And into whose pockets do the profits go? The answers might not equal immediate solutions, but they do offer front-row seats at the oil industry’s absurd ballet. They also help explain the choices of American consumers who complain about the expense of a gallon of gas while sipping an even more expensive cup of coffee. (22 minutes)
