Looking around the country I can see that maybe we aren't doing so bad here in the midwest.
Now as far as the snapple, white out or milk goes I fill my tank up once a week to the tune of 14-15 gallons. Maybe we would be pissed off at the prices of other things we take for granted as "cheap" if we actually used the same quantity we do with gas. I'm not planning on buying 14 gallons of milk or snapple real soon and I don't even use white out here at work because we do Gov. work and Uncle Sam doesn't like it. Thinks your hiding something. So it's all relative besides it's a poor argument if you look deeper than the surface.
Gas prices are up because of the impending war and no other reason. And if you believe gas companies aren't in the business of raping us then you are naive. So they will come up with whatever B.S. excuse they can. But I would do the same thing if I was in the oil business.
In the end this is all useless conjecture considering we have no recourse. What are we going to do? Stop driving??
Guess they've got us by the short hairs.
