Gas Price totally out of hand!!

[FlyLie]

Just got a call from a friend who tells me gas in $4.20 in Southern Indiana and $4.10 across the river in Kentucky today. Afraid to check our local prices!!

This is totally out of hand, with no justification, other then investors/speculators driving up the price. Hate to give in, but should the government step in????

PS, not sure how current this web site is on pricing, but FYI:

I paid $3.77 this morning about 9:00am and by lunch the same station was $4.05....I'm at a loss for words. To fill up my F150 (36 gallon tank) is about $145.00 right now....and that is insane.

It is going to KILL this country's economy from top to bottom...

I went out this mornig and gas was 375 every were and on the way home 2 hours later 4+ This is bull s*&t to say the least but the roumer is because the news said somthing about closing the refinery down because of flood water but if it is in the gulf how the heck can it flood the ocean?? Just more BS man.

Oil futures have been on a downward slide now for a couple of weeks:

Oil futures are below $100 a barrel right now.

Something it totally wrong somewhere between when it's sold on the market, and when it's sold to the gas stations.......

Looks like several stores are dropping their gas prices within the last 24 hours. Just checked a few spots in Kentucky, Ohio and Maine.

Just when you think things can't get any worse, have the government jump in and then watch and see how bad things can get.

right dont let big gobment interfere with fleece enterprise!

Government - Just a bunch of the biggest, most lying, stealing, cheating, coniving, two faced, hypocritical son of a guns I've ever seen. Can't trust none of em'! Fire em' all!

Don't let the people fear the government, let the govenment fear the people!

Sorry...kind of getting off course here, just feeling kind of anti-government these days. I wonder what our good friend Willie Nelson has been up to lately?

Im with chubs. The only thing the government should be doing about fuel prices is eliminating their taxes on fuel.
