Yeah? Well, the stations around here suddenly jumped 15 cents between when I got home at 4:00 and drove out to wal-mart at 6:00. I doubt they all just got tanked. Fucking gouging

It's all speculation. Ike is expected to create $81 billion in damages and I don't know if you guys have every been down that way, but there's refineries everywhere.

It is illegal to do that without taking a shipment in. I use to work at a gas station and wondered about that. you get the new price for gas with an invoice once you receive the new gas. They might have just took a shipment even though they didnt need one to raise the prices. i guess they could do that if they wanted.

my understanding is that the price of gas is determined by the price of the next shipment

So instead of round two stimulus checks, how about they use that money to build a few more refineries...like 10? Fuck Oregon and build them there, so hurricanes can't shut them down.
