I would suggest "nobody knows what the price will be and Congress again has the gas companies on the mat getting them to explain their "record" profits.  let me throw this at you. On Tuesday April 1st the Mobil station up the street was charging$3.09 for regular, Wed $3.15, Thursday $3.12 and today, Friday $3.20.  I ask you, what has changed drastically this week and why the local daily changes when the trucks that supply the stations stop by only twice a week! What has the commodity market got to do with the "daily" fluctuations?
Did the gas prices rise eleven cents a gallon this week because the unemployment figures raised?

Yeah it's some bullshit goin on. I just found some old reciets in my glove compartment, from 2 months ago at the same Marathon I go to premium gas was $50 cheaper. Oil is a natural resource but it doesn't GET wasted that fast all the sudden in a 2 month frame. I found it kind of intresting, someone told me Bush is a co owner of Exxon Mobile, that might be a little coinsidence with the gas prices going up if it's true.

It's about greed, nothing else. Oil co.s don't care about recession / depression they are causing in the US. Years ago I knew a guy from NYC. Almost all of the gas stations had out off gas signs on the the pumps. Being young enterprisers, his friends found an oil co. with lots of gas and a trucking co. willing to haul the the gas from Texas to NYC. There was only one problem....There was no place to store it everyone's tanks were full. They were just waiting to raise the price. There a large number of capped off wells in US right now and we are still a OIL EXPORTING NATION.  Because BIG BUSINESS controls the government they are able to do what they want. BIG BUSINESS pushs for deregulation in the consumers best interest, free competion, then merger together to SCREW the american public. The next adminstration will have it's hands full trying to straighten out the mess left the oil men. Oh, I'm sorry the present administration.

Basically Bush led to the collapse of the U.S golden age and the power of the dollar
