Guess what, the gas stations (as separate entities from the gas companies) are in business to MAKE MONEY. Cheap gas is not a God-given right, and the gas stations are free (more or less) to charge whatever the market will bear.

YOU are also free to spend your money wherever you please, including other stations. You could also buy a hybrid vehicle, a diesel vehicle (where you could brew your own biodiesel), ride a bike, etc.

Do you also get upset when Home Depot raises the prices on lumber already in stock, in order to manage the demand against the lumber commodities market?

Do you complain when a gas station drops their prices BEFORE the current stock is depleted, because prices are trending DOWN?

YES we do, and it is a conspiracy when other countries are paying a lot less for gas, and it is funny how some of these wars include countries that we protect for oil and yet the princesses feel free to hold us hostage for the oil, but cry wolf when someone wants to blow them up!
