You made several good pionts. I have to say that all I am basing my point is that of when crude prices were for that of a $1 pergallon. Those prices for abarrel of crude have not doubled yet. I realize that every thing has gone up in price but very clearly price guaging is being allowed.Another administration tried this in the late 80's and was quickly removed and fuel prices were brought back under control. That same adminstration came back into power and guess what fuel goes back up and keeps on going up until that admistration is removed from power.
Yes ther are more cars on the road and consumption is up ,but cost in manufacturing the product has not. Cost of product is the onlything that has changed. So with that said I understand that a $1 per gallon can not happen ,but my numbers say $1.82 is what the cost should be and if you do it your way $2.10 is what it should be at the profit rate being made during the $1 pergallon eara. Icanot find a reason for $3 per gallon
now the oil companys have lost a big tax break. So ther big profits now mean more tax revenew. Win ,Win for both parties involved, and a lose lose status for the economy and stander of living america had enjoyed and by the way has any body refigured what poverty level income is justified at sacry numbers most public saftey workers now fallen in that income braket.
Jut playing deveils advocate and making another piont to look at and making chat.
