You can't tell me something strange isn't going on here

I am not an economist, or an expert on anything. But there is no way that the price of oil is increasing at the same rate as the demand for it. It seems utterly impossible that all of a sudden over the course of 5 years the demand has quadrupled.

I was going to buy a new car. I am not sure I am now. I can't help but feel that it will be too expensive to drive cars in the not too distant future.
