I swear there should be some kind of law that prevents profiteering from This upcoming war.

IL filed a law suite on some guy for jacking up the price of gas at his station on 9/11. Dunce!

It's about $1.70 for low grade here. My little bitty Hyundai used to fill up on $10...no more. ARGH!!!!!

Of course, nobody mentions that crude oil prices (which is needed for gas) is going up day after day right now. Oil is at a 2 year high at over $32 a barrel. US stockpiles are at 27 year lows.


I know it's not fun and everyone hates how much they are paying, but you've got to realize it isn't just the gas station's fault. The oil companies have to pay more, so your prices go up. It's just the way it is.

Welcome to my world... It's been like this down here, with a new raise every 2 weeks or so, ever since Bush first started his little game of "War".

Well, with the current dollar rates, ours would be around $0,65. But if you consider the minimum wage down here is around 65 bucks, you can imagine how hard things are...

It's $2.09 out here in Sacramento, California.
