Should we raise taxes on the rich to lower oil/gas prices?

There is a glut of oil and gas right now but the price of oil keeps going up. In fact ALL the commodities are going up. This is caused by the rich investor cl bidding up the price of commodities like they would anything at an auction. They have trillions of dollars to gamble with. Is it time to raise the taxes on the rich back up to pre-Reagan level of 74% so they cant gamble with our food and gas??
