Okay get this, many times we were told the demand is high (way back cars only got 15-20 mpg) and the supply is low sooooooooo they have to raise gas prices buttttttttttt get this, the other day on the news this supposed expert talking head (about high gas prices) is going on saying theres plenty of oil available BUT THE DEMAND IS ANEMIC since people are driving less and using more fuel efficient cars and it was a mild winter SO THEY HAVE TO RAISE THE PRICE LOL If you do the right thing by driving less and higher MPG cars what do we get?? PUNISHED they arent selling enough gas so they have to make more per gallon OH WELL.......
I can remember when they said they had to charge more for gas because thay had the expense to add lead to prevent pre ignition in higher compression engines OK SOUNDS REASONABLE
But then years later THEY HAD TO RAISE THE PRICE AGAIN TO REMOVEEEEEEEEEEE THE LEAD (I though it was added???)
But we have the choice, we do NOT have to buy it unless needed to get to work of pick up the kids or drive to get groceries I reckon. But as far as our choice in setting the price were outa luck
