How bad's the price gouging on gas in your area? - Page 2

On a lighter note WTL I blame your damn Avatar for high gas prices. I watch that little stick man burn up a gallon every few seconds setting his *** on fire. Couldn't he just stand on a pile of logs and burn himself the old fashioned way?

The stick man burns himself in protest of all the people who want to throw blame around just cause it makes em feel better.

This seriously reminds me of the Grapes of Wrath. People's bottom lines get threatened, then they start get threatening. But its not always the people right in front of you who are at fault. Sometimes its just the nature of the market. At the end of the day though, you end up with a bunch of people who are at each others throats, arguing over a hopelessly complex issue, when they could just be trying to do what they know they can do to get out of trouble instead of laying blame.

Laying blame does make me feel better, unitll I go to gas up the truck and the boat. Then I have to complain and lay more blame.

I like to think he is using grain alcohol. You know, the stuff he had on hand for such a demonstration.

Oh sh%t, you mean all those cow's I tipped over when I was young caused the price of milk to go up??? I apoligize now for any financial hardship I have caused.

Anyways, yes I feel speculated pricing is wrong. The fuel is already there and paid for, they are attempting to make money for the next shipment.

our gas went from $3.89 to $4.19. I don't know how but diesel is usually $4.59 or so and I found it for $4.19 yesterday in Watervliet, MI.
