Oh wow, I give up. You do realize you have just said the commodities market dictates the price of gas and that it is set by supply and demand. Which is it?
You are also saying Exxon has no control over the pricing of what it sells!!
Oil pricing is adjusted based on the commodities market which in turn means Exxon pays more for it, which in turns means they sell gas for more money, which in turn means you pay more for gas!
