I have wondered why gasoline prices in Fairbanks are $2.50 or so like the rest of the country when we pull our few barrels directly off the TransAlaska Pipeline. We should be getting gasoline for 10 cents like Iraq and Venezuela."

They have a socialized oil economy. we have the free market, we pay the global price .... and thank God for that.

I know. Those of us who built the TransAlaska Pipeline and didn't draw union wages because we weren't that well organized at the time should in fairness get our gasoline for free.
