Moni, please lets not get into this "rich oilman" thing about Bush, his opponent was no better, Al Gore has heavy investments in Oil as well. What I was pointing out was the rise in prices was NOT due to DISTRIBUTORS (mostly old white guy owned) But STRICTLY due to the Greed of the individual STATION owners A large proportion of which in this country happen to be of Middle Eastern Descent. Give me ONE good reason why Gas they bought at normal prices in their underground tanks HAD to go from the price on Monday to $5+ on tuesday?? The ONLY answer is sheer unadulterated greed. It is called Price Gouging and that is illegal. And as you might have noticed if you read the whole post I was wondering not stating anything as fact as to the nationality of the owners.
