Personally, I look at the overall price of gas, independent of the elements that go into the final charge per gallon.

That said, if gas can stay below $3/gallon I'm ok with that. Perhaps if the cost per barrel fluctuate, we could then reduce the tax to offset such increases.

I am not in favor of adding more debt to our already disastrous debt levels.  

I wonder if anyone in this any administration can do basic arithmetic.

Fixed that for you

Gas where I'm at is $2.79 for regular unleaded. That extra $.25 would push it right over the $3 mark.
