well i can tell since i just heard on the "news." the prices would rise to $300 - $500 per barrel of oil so gasoline prices would be increased accordingly. businesses would be forced to put enormous gas tax on all their products to sweep away all those 3 customers who would actually be shopping for anything else but food. no profits would naturally be followed by massive bankruptcy wave that would send stocks to burning hells and cut millions of people from their pension money and benefits that would set us back in 1930s. oh, and the prius would become the most stolen vehicle of the year
