Angry gas price jumping up already

seem some already hiking the price on fuel at the gas station the fed will be looking into it cross the country.




it a day later and some jerks are jacking the price of some gas station are jacking the price up like crazy, my home town they jump it up today 3x in 4hours.

my local gas station 4 blocks away from me.
3.65 low
3.75 med
3.79 high

i would not mind to much if they added-in 15% up on the price for releaf found for them who are doing not good at all, and help in remove the dead bodys in them areas it cost money and be a good thing for them and us all in the USA.

for some who may not know their math the 9/10 means for sample
3.00 9/10 the real price is 3.01c

anything over 5/10 is carrior over to whole number
3.00 6/10 is 3.01 be it 6/10-9/10

did you know it not the oil the stock's market brokers look at its the refine fuel made from it. they using in the stock-market to bit on it they bit more money on it higher the stock goes up.

i think the oil company's found a loop hole and scaring the stock market in to jumping the price sky high.

i hope soon one day we don't use gas/fuel at all then oil be like .25c a barrow.

by the way releasing the oil reserves will take 2-3 Weeks for it to jump in, till then price of fuel will still go up like crazy.

personally i would not be shock to see it go to USD-5.00 a Gallon of fuel.

there a company in my area that is supplying their employee with Gas now for 1/2 price, they have 3ea 5.000.gal tanks using for their trucks, they will fill-up their employee tanks only cars.

they told their employee's try not to use it for making long trips only use your cars for work, shopping.

they said they will do it for next 2 weeks see if it cool off the price.

think the government has the power to freeze the price on oil if it get out of hand.
===========================================

it funny you think about it in this way;
who is jacking the price up: the people are
why you ask; if there a scare on supply on oil they will raise the price on goods higher.
when some thing go bad: they blackball their own people to pay more for a item that has not change at all.

national disorder hit they cry higher price for good! sad but true.

the oil is there only it going to take longer to get to the people, funny if a office desk was on a truck and that desk was on the stock market, the truck was in trouble! so the desk could not be transfer to the point on time, were it need to be would that desk price jump higher in price even if been on the truck and in the country? sad asker would be yes.

in other word supply of good on demand were they have the right to jack price on goods.

bottom line when scare hit the stock market they start to jump on a item more they buy of shares the more the price go up on items. the word scare means to the stock market means two things a product Scare 1-less or 2-loss if it a loss that stock will drop, but if there less that stock will go higher up in price. funny stocks run by scare words more then any other thing. if it a great (sample: IBM) item it go up a lot this is good, but if there a scare it ether drop dead or raise the price sky high

I am so freaking pissed off on how the goverment is responding or (not) responding.

They need to do something to limit the frequency and amount that gas companies can raise prices.

If every other company got away with it then our economy would be dead. They hold a monopoly on fuel and jack the price up. They fix prices which is also illegal.

I was a fan of bush but if he is not going to do anything about this then screw him. He along with our media are all run by the oil companies.

1.) reply same here too, but then again you have to under stand this is new to them, as will not really understanding first hand how bad it is, they may have think ooh the news all blowing this way out so they step back wait it out. not pushing it were it was needed to be push. i have to say they say we love you all but bottom line they only care about their job and doing their own thing.

2.) it sad fact that the Pres Bush and his brother both have oil company to run, so in a way there no help in locking it or freeze it.

oil price in a way is still the same if anything there is more of it in ports waiting to get off loaded, when they take that oil and make it into all type of fuel it is this that the price is jack up.

think in the USA TX is a safer place to make fuel it don't get hit as much as any other place when a hurricanes come inland maybe move all there.

for god sake i hope they take that so call pipe line put it underground were a hurricanes will not damage it.

Press Bush is trying at lease this is not be clean up or restore life as it was over night, but i think they was being lazy about it not pushing for support, helicopter should been sent in sooner to move people and check homes see if people are in the home.

sad fact a lot of home flooded areas will have dead body's and even dead body's of them may have been save stuck in Attic were not able to get out.

by the way it the Stock-Market that raise the price of fuel not the oil company's.

Price go down/up on Gold,silver,oil be sides other things.

oil is all so call Black-gold

by the way a lot of insurance company's will not do a thing reason they will say; this was a act of god or a nature disaster. and some people did not have any insurance on their home at all.

will it a good ID only will do no good reason people will pay what ever the price is set at. even if price go up to USD-5.00 per-gallon they will still pay the price to get to work and do shopping.

do it smartly:
best people can do is not waste fuel.
cut the grass less do it once a month
do shopping once a month and drive less.
use less fuel more of it there is price will go down.

be sides carpool with other co-workers who live near to each other. ether you can ask other who go to work about the same time as you do if their work place is not much out the way you can help each other by car pool with each other.

church group is a good place to ask other who may work in the same location as you do team up to carpool with.

driving all over the place's is wasteful do everything at one time.
