If everyone is an independant, then why do the prices at all gas stations go up at the same time?? A lady I know is a manager at a Marathon station, when I asked her why the prices go up like they do, her response was "I got a phone call from corporate telling me the price was to go up a certain amount at a certain time of the day" Then everyone else went up, also. They also must have got that call from corporate telling them when and how much. when everyone changes at the same time and the saem amount, I call it price fixing, but our government does not call it that. As for GW being the blame, he is not the full blame, but he is an oil man from Texas, i am sure he has lots of oil man buddies, he is not going to step on there toes and do anything. Oil companies have had record profits this year, while most people who are in private sector and rely on transportaion are havng record expenses. Something not quite right there.
