Ok, am I the only one who has noticed that the last like 10 times gas prices went up, they spiked up then down just before a gradual increase?
I don't think it's a coincidence that gas spikes quickly, then people start comlaining then it goes down not as much as it went up, but then it slowly goes back to where it was when it spiked or just below.
I think this is a tactic used by the petro companies to inflate prices. A vital resource should not yield record profits, especially when it is in high demand. Granted we are a capitalist country, but there are laws to protect us from price fixing, which I see blatantly happening.
