Not conjecture.
Tell me how this has effected supply and demand here in America's heartland?

Sure.
any tension in the middle east is viewed a future threat to supply. Traders on Wall street view this future threat to supply as a potential money-making situation. they buy buy buy, artificially pushing price of oil up, and gas usually follows rather quickly. So if oil company profits are low, all they have to do is pay some guy to shoot an couple RPGs into Israel, and they go right back up.
But as far as 50 cents more, sounds like price gouging.

First, love Ann Coulter. Second thieves at the stock market are stealing you blind. Third loopy loony lying liberal democrats are blocking America from producing more oil for Americas because they want to create a crisis to justify their socialist government take over of the economy.

seems to me you might want to report your stations to the state for gouging. Gas by me only went up 5 cents.

I KNOW!!! stupid crooks are ripping us off. they would raise that price if a stinking rat died in the middle east.
the question is why do we HAVE to put up with this?!
