SteanLV · 03-31-2007, 04:13 AM

probably not, but the gas companies can get away with making everyone think it is due to the war, katrina, shortage blah blah blah...i think they just do whatever they want

SteanLV · 03-31-2007, 04:52 AM

Would some of our friends across the pond like to chime in on what THEY pay?

We have nothing to bitch about.

Think Iran in this case. Everyone's all up in arms about shutting things down there...apparently they say even an hour will cause the prices to skyrocket.

Is Iran our main source of oil? I cant believe how much money these companies make, but the real question is where does all this money go?

teknochild · 03-31-2007, 01:56 PM

all the gas companies got together a few years ago and realized it was in their best interest to jack up prices

they have all been posting record earnings, there just doing it because they can

Actually I think I read somewhere that Canada is our main source of oil

///M_owns_you · 03-31-2007, 03:55 PM

kepford · 03-31-2007, 03:59 PM

Typical seasonal upcharge. Funny how gas prices always go down in winter and up in summer. <sarcasm> Of course they wouldn't be maniuplating the market because that would be illegal. </sarcasm>

Hahahah good ol laguna gas prices

Jonmartin · 03-31-2007, 07:38 PM

I paid $3.49 today at shell.

A. Hansen · 03-31-2007, 07:58 PM

Here in Holland (Europe) we ALWAYS pay about $ 5.90 a gallon

You get used to it.

SoCal335i · 03-31-2007, 08:19 PM

the reason the gas prices are so high is due to the Bush Administration. The bush family is deep in the oil business and im sure they are making something off of it. I think Opec reported that they made an extra 7 billion last year off the gas sold to the USA in profits alone. If you watch the news there isnt much complain about the gas prices and people arent doing that one day a week gas boycott thing and theres not enough attention on the subject for them to care to lower it, the funniest thing is that the price per barrel is going down and the pumps are going up

. I remember in 1998 for one week gas prices went down to $.99 for a gallon of 92 premium here. I filled up my full tank that day for $12.00.

Kbueno · 04-01-2007, 09:30 PM

I remember Bush stating in a speech that he was going to double America's oil reserves??? Prices should be dropping. WTF?

musc · 04-01-2007, 09:38 PM

Pretty common they jack the prices up when the weather gets nice/summer months. Still only paid 2.69/gal for Shell Vpower93 today. A few weeks ago it was 2.39.
