Gasoline at $4 Coming to a Pump Near You, Unfazed by Rising Tab

Pretty alarmist, IMO, but possible.

Spoiler!

I think you need to re-read. I didn't say that maintenance was the only reason for the recent price increase, just one of them.

Well, unfortunately, summer blends are required by the government and the refineries have to take production offline to get ready to switch over to it. That isn't the fault of the energy companies. And, yes, it coincides with our busiest driving periods (hence demand increasing).

I know that Americans just can't get enough of driving around in blizzards! Better jack the price of gas up!

And again, I don't remember the prices spiking so sharply in the past as they have now just to get the refineries ready to pump out the summer crude blends.

The switch from winter to summer blends doesn't happen with the flip of a switch. It usually happens this time of year to make sure that it's ready for shipment by June 1 (which is mandated).

And again, refinery maintenance isn't the only reason for the recent increase. I don't know why you continue to claim that it is (and that I claim that it is).

I suspect that you are allowing your emotions to cloud your objectivity.

There isn't any more demand than normal. People drive to work every day, just like they did last month. No more, no less. Now it just costs more because oil companies want more profits.

Probably. I doubt it was coincidence the price of gas fell pretty low around election time.

Piss on these bastards and their $3.99 gas. If the Govt cared about the price gouging they could step in and do something about it.
