Oh, puleeze. The moment the cold weather hit the northeast, gas prices rose in Texas. Nothing to do with supply and demand, now days if Cher trims her hair or Clinton blows his, um, nose, gas prices go up.
Man are you in for it from the Free Republic,market price Capitalists can make it any price they want crowd.
But you are correct, The moment the call came in for bad weather the price went up over $60 dollars. Had nothing to do with demand.
Let me understand this... World oil prices rose because of a chill in the northeast at the beginning of the winter season (which has probably never happened before)? Postage stamp demand affects WORLD prices? What about spring in Melborne?
Yep, world supply and demand at its best????? NOT.......
Maybe gouging at its best IMHO.......
