Should the government regulate gas prices more?

I see people complaining about the price of gas (hey, I'm one of them) and I see some people asking for the government to step in and get the prices lowered.

What if those same people wanted to step in and get porn prices lowered?

If we allow the government to set gas prices, shouldn't they be allowed to set prices on other products?

What if your state senator wanted to appease his porn hungry fans and determined that we couldn't charge anymore than $5 per month for porn?

Maybe a silly ccomparison, but shouldn't competition determine the price of a product rather than the government? For an industry that doesn't want the government to regulate US, we sure love to tell them how they should regulate others ;-)
