Why aren't gas station owners being thrown in jail?

under 100 dollars a barrel and gas is still 4 bucks. The hurricane excuse is BS, you know they still own inventory from before IKE happened.

Gas is about 2.5 cents for every dollar/barrel, so the price should be around $2.50 anyway.

um because there is no fixed pricing set by the government...it is a free market and people can set the prices however they want...i don't like it, but it is how it is...the real question is why weren't chinese business owners fined or what not for inflating prices on cigs during the olympics when the govt controls the prices and the cigs are suppose to be the same price wherever you buy them

Is Nashville the only city running out of gas? I had to go to 5, yes 5, stations to find one that has not run out gas. The first 4 only had diesel.

Let me ask you something. If you can so easily poke fun at another country then whey don't you have it in your profile where you are from? Probably because it is a third world county!

You know where I am from, because if I was called out, I would be proud enough to shout it out!
