"Not a bargin, theft."

But a theft not unlike charging $3.299 for a gallon of gasoline.

You should complain to your Rat/Rino politicians about the price. Do not blame the owner, refinery, or oil companies.

Don't like it? Don't buy it. Viola!! You are no longer a victim of theft!

(Hint: it isn't called "stealing" if thousands of customers approach the seller and ask to purchase the product at the seller's clearly-posted price. That's called "commerce" by rational people. FYI.)

So enlighten us, what would you mandate as the proper and fair price?

And what makes you think you’d be correct?

Or 97 dollars a barrel for crude oil. Two dollars a gallon for something you pump out of the ground by the millions of gallons a day.

That theft is Saudi, this theft was American against his neighbor.

Supply and demand are theft??

How much do you pay for your decaf latte?

Did I miss your sarcasm tag or are you really suggesting that charging the market price to customers who purchase the product of their own volition amounts to theft?
