If they step in and try to regulate prices, then demand is going to shoot out of the roof and you will be hard pressed to find gas period. I think one thing really sticks out in my mind about the article, where bush says that the companies will still be shareholder owned, which is one of the most important things for a market such as americas to succeed. So I don't disagree with the stuggling and such, but, its a very delicate situation the economy will rebound from, and will be fine.
ETA: The reporter who wrote the article, which I feel was manipulated hugely to appeal against bush due his very bias toward liberal views and his dislike for bush.
