yeah, thats why a month ago diesel, which is easier/cheaper to refine, was 20-30 cents a gallon more than premiumOriginally posted by ronbotxSupply & demand? Refineries back online? Simple really. Or believe the conspiracy theories.333-765-551Comment

Just wait until the indictments fall! Should be any day now ...Originally posted by ronbotxI'm sure Halliburton must be involved somehow too
On a unrelated note, banks are making a record profit every year and yet their service charges keep on going up. It's almost like they're running a business based on profit and are going to charge you what you'll pay. Sort of like they're trying to make as much as they can. God damned bankers..Comment

<conspiracytheory>
Thanksgiving is the start of the big XMas buying time frame.. So lowering gas prices just beforehand means people will feel like they have more money to spend and so will now go out and buy buy buy.. gotta keep that economy going strong...

You really should try picking up a newspaper sometime. In the last quarter alone Exxon made almost $10 BILLION PROFIT. No company in the history of the world has ever made that much profit in 3 months. If that doesnt paint a picture of price gouging I don't know what does.Originally posted by ronbotxI'm sure Halliburton must be involved somehow tooComment

While there ARE some fundamental changes (ie., rise of India and China as massive oil consumers) that warrants the price rise, most of the sharp spikes in price is due to speculation.Comment

You should do the same. Oil companies get a percent of the profit of what they pump out of these foreign owned wells. Not a big surprise that they are making more money on the same gallon of gas. Do you think the Saudis should keep it all? Maybe, we should applaud them for bringer huge cash to the USA?Originally posted by SuckOnThisYou really should try picking up a newspaper sometime.

Huh? Companies such as Exxon get a percent of the profit from oil pumped from a Saudi owned oil well? What the fuck are you talking about?Originally posted by slapassOil companies get a percent of the profit of what they pump out of these foreign owned wells.Comment

I like seeing average working joes driving SUV's that get 9mpg, spending 50% of their income on their car payment and then screaming how the gas company is screwing them.Originally posted by hydronothing gives me a hardon faster than seeing those little lcd letters say 9 mpg.Comment

Sorry to burst your bubble but there's not an SUV out there that gets 9 mpg. I have a lifted F250 and I get a little more than 9 pulling a 13,000 lb 5th wheel.Comment

what about the working joe making min wage driving an 89 civic getting 13mpg who cant afford a hybrid but still needs to get to work? you like seeing that too? he works 7 hours a day and 1 goes to the drive to and from work. that rules!Originally posted by WarChildI like seeing average working joes driving SUV's that get 9mpg, spending 50% of their income on their car payment and then screaming how the gas company is screwing them.333-765-551Comment

Like I said, it's hard for the rest of the world to have too much sympathy for Americans in this area .. We're cumatively used to paying more for gas, so it's nearly impossible to empathize.Originally posted by bringerwhat about the working joe making min wage driving an 89 civic getting 13mpg who cant afford a hybrid but still needs to get to work? you like seeing that too? he works 7 hours a day and 1 goes to the drive to and from work. that rules!.Comment

Yea and they did over 100 Billion in sales so their profit was less then 10% which in the business world is just average !
You've been suckered by the press with this 10 Billion Profit line. There are many other fortune 500 companies making 30% - 40% profit but they don't sell gasoline or oil.Comment
