$1.69 for the cheap stuff today in Wichita.
I know many of you despise govt. involvement in industry, but I think it's time for Uncle Sam to step in and fix this situation by whatever means necessary.
Rising gas prices screw with our entire economy, and IMO the whole "supply/demand" argument is a load of BS. Aren't companies like Mobil, Shell, etc. the ones that get oil out of the ground all over the world, including the Middle East?
If there's a shorage of oil, then why are oil companies raking in record-shattering profits?
Would the President have the nerve to drop the hammer on the industry whose leaders have been greasing his palms for so long?
