Various reasons, but most of the cost of gas comes from the price of crude oil, which has gone up recently. There are many reasons for the increase in the price of oil, which is set by the traders on the futures market. They're up on the uncertainly of the future supply and also on the strong and increasing demand for oil.

There's a decent article here about it: http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=5365439

For most gasoline buyers, the more important question is "what percentage of my total cost of vehicle ownership is comprised of gas"? For drivers who do not own their vehicle outright (if they have a loan or lease payment...of say $300 per month), gas price inflation is less important in making ends meet as paying off their loan or switching from leasing to owning.

because our money is not worth what it use to be. inflation, which drops the amount of "pennies" in a dollar. the banks loan out money, if they print to much, the value of the dollar goes
down.

Taxes are one reason, but also oil/gas is becoming a more scarce resource and OPEC and other oil companies basically have a monopoly on it and know we will payvirtually anything to be able to drive around.
