Just thoought I would shed some light on the cost of gasoline in Southern California, filled up my car yesterday and paid 1.91 per gal for regular gas, my car takes High Test, but at these prices it will endure every other tank fill up with the "cheap stuff"!

Price gouging? You bet!

I am sure we are about to "lieberate" all the gas we will need!

How about that Rick?

It's all about the oil. Good.

We're at about $1.56 for reg. by me.

$1.49 in AZ at most places. If you look carefully, you can get it for less, but it's going up every day.

I miss last summer...when it hit $.79 in my hometown in Jersey 😞

Fresno area has been the cheap spot in the state, after a year or so of being the most expensive. Still it has gone up to 1.69 or regular at the discount stations. Chevron and Shell run 1.75-1-89 for regular.

I saw 2.49 in Los Banos along I-5.

1.77 today in chicago.

.79 per gallon? Wha? That is insane. Was it the Goodfellas Gas Station, or what? That's cheap.

1.99 in Michigan, by the way.

$.02 in Baghdad

$1.69 here in upstate N.Y

Of all businesses in this country, the oil companies are the most adept at making money ... in all economic conditions, one thing you can count on is quarterly headlines in the business section of the newspaper indicating that the "such and so oil company has reached record profits in the quarter just ending" ...

Price at the pump has little, if anything, to do with actual market conditions ... rather, it is indicative of what the master manipulators in the oil company HQs THINK that the market will bear at a given time ... and the real problem is that we are too tightly welded to driving our cars to give them sufficient evidence that they're wrong ... as long as we keep paying, they'll continue the pattern ... I guarantee it

or, as the old saying goes:

"When you've got 'em by the balls, their hearts and minds will follow"

We are only small peanuts compared to the companies that use the most fuel. I fill my car up every other day with supreme only! (on the dash) My truck every 3-4 days and 2 other vehicles up quite often. Sometimes more than once per day.

My contributions are only limited to say the least when compared to the guy bringing me my cigars I order online. Whether USPS, UPS, Fed-Ex, or another trucking line or via aircraft. The fuel consumption is much more. It's our lifestyle and way of life. The oil magnates understand and in turn charge for it.. hell, the taxes on our fuel here is more than 70% of the charge.

Keep the faith!

Individually, we are small peanuts ... but collectively, we are where the majority of their $$ comes from ...
