Reply to "Unemployment rate falls to 3.9 percent, lowest level since 2000"

Gas is rising for three reasons -- half of the refineries close at a time to change to the summer blends, more people traveling as the weather warms and they have more money to spend and the improving global economy. 

State and county taxes have a bit to do with it, as well. I drove from California to Alabama, lately.  I paid $3.85 a gallon in LA, $3.35 a gallon in Nevada and $3.15 in New Mexico.
