Anybody see this happening in your area? Gas locally here jumped from $3.49 to $4.20 just this afternoon. 25 miles further down the road - greater deliver distance by truck - it has gone to $5.25/gallon. It's a rip, and ought to be stopped - at least until the next round of fuel tanker deliveries. The fuel in the ground was purchased at prices based on sales calculated around $3.50 to $3.60 per gallon. There is no justification for this except greed, pure and simple. I believe in free market - to a point. But some things should not be subject to the whims of the market place .... those things that are crucial to life and civilization.
