Gas prices.....Why?

[DJD]

The thing I keep trying to remember is why for 40 years of driving I never remember gas going up everytime the wind cut a fart before? This supply and demand bull doesn't cut it either.Yet,our hero saviors the Democrats refuse to allow new refinery's to be built or open up new drilling,WHY?

That's the corner these Libs have put themselves into. Al Gore, Nancy Pelosi and his groupies want "Global Warming and Green everything" at the expense of the whole nation. These special interests groups are in their back pocket and won't stand for the Libs voting to drill. So they have a hard time putting their stamp on more drilling since the "oil" and that industry is the devil in their eyes. JMO

It seems they are taking advantage of others bad luck, when storms knock out power generators are used for power and generators run on gas and diesel and also kerosene for lights heat, and people fleeling the storms path and evacuating due to gov orders. So they raise the prices, this is supply and demand they control the supply, demand the price,and we get gouged.

I bought gas in Hamblen County, TN near St. Clair and it cost me $4.50 per gallon. 1/2 tank cost $70.00. I told the man at the station that, with prices like that, he should set a jar of Vaseline beside each pump because gas companies were sticking it in us.

Been thinking about making me a hydrogen gas generator and hanging it on my truck, but I'm afraid I'll blow myself up.

There is gouging going on without a doubt. Key Oil Co seems to control the prices here in Bowling Green. Whatever their retailers' prices are everyone else's are too. Gas is 20-30 cents a gallon cheaper in Russelville a 1/2 hour away. It's even cheaper than that in Franklin 18 miles away. Don't see how supply and demand, speculators, or anything other than plain out old price gouging can be responsible.

I noticed that Glasgow was lower also. What gets me is how they can raise the prices on gas already in the tanks that was bought at the lower price?
