What A Difference 24 Hours Makes!

They may be different Stations but they're prices were exactly the same 24 hours ago. The price of gas is out of control and as American's we're just putting up with it. Any other line of business would be shut down for such price fixing immediately but not the gasoline industry.

Imagine going to McDonalds and buying a burger one day for a buck and the next it's a buck and a quarter. What do Taxi Cab Companies do, raise their rates by the hour? The when the gas drops in price, do they give it back by lowering their rates?

Far too many prices on so many things we deal with daily reflect on gas prices and there's just no doubt we're paying higher prices normally based on these companies figuring they'd have to have a cushion in case the rates jump quickly. Scroll down to yesterday's post where gas was only $2.03 a gallon.
