here in wisconsin they have a law that gas stations can't change their price more than ONCE per 24 hour period. it's not the best legislation, but it does help a little.

Gas prices bite lately... almost makes me GLAD my car is out of commission at the moment. Despite having to rely on my family for rides everywhere, at least I'm not spending money on gas!

Wednesday at around 4:15 pm I was on my way home from work and noted that the gas station that had been at $2.79 for the better part of a week and a half was then at $2.99. I almost choked barely two and a half hours later when I was on my way to a meeting at quarter to seven... the same station was at $3.29!

I'm going to jinx the city by saying this, but here in my part of Cincinnati there's a BP station that is staying steady at $2.99 Better yet, it's right next to where I work I'll take it, seeing what everyone else is paying

Uhhh....moondog, 95% of the US's refineries?? Are you insane?

Our economy would be collapsing before us, and you wouldnt see cheap $3.00 gas if 95% of the US refineries were taken out.


It's more like 15-20%, not EVERY ONE is in the gulf coast.
