Jesus Freakonomics: Gas Prices

You’ve probably heard the old adage “The road to hell is paved with good intentions.” Does it follow that the road to economic hell paved with good intentions? This is one of a series of conversations with Dr. Charles North, associate professor of economics, on issues he writes about with Bob Smietana in their new book "Good Intentions: Nine Hot-Button Issues Viewed Through the Eyes of Faith."

In this segment, Dr. North discusses gas prices. Are gas prices high because of profit-greedy oil companies? Are gas prices too low? Where does the money go?
