High Gas Prices On The Rise

Gas prices are still on the rise almost everywhere.But you know what really ticks me off? It's when places such as where I live that has their own local oil refineries.We have heard poor excuses for high gas prices such as,War in Iraq,Hurricane Katrina,etc...,etc...

Anyways back to our local oil refineries.They are no excuses for them charging their own people such outrageous prices.You would think that they would take better care of their own people,wouldn't you?

I read a book that was written back in the 90's about high gas prices.The author of the book stated that there was an old country gas station and when that store raised their gas prices,others did as soon as they heard that this man raised his,and when this man lowered his gas prices others did as well.

Anyways this author of this book went and paid this man a visit and asked him why did he raise his prices and about him lowering his prices.The man laughed and stated that he loved to play poker and sometimes he would win and sometimes he would lose.And when he lost alot of his money,he then would raise his gas prices quite a bit so that he would get some of his money back that he had lost.And when he would win a great deal,he would then lower his prices quite a bit.

Why do they raise our gas prices so high today? I will sum it up with just one word,GREED!!
