Good point. The consumer has power, they just don't realize it.
Figure this, if a small company takes a profit hit by selling fuel at a 5 cents profit per gallon. To average Joe consumer the gas seems less expensive and as such little mom and pop have now tripled their customer base there from now making 15 cents on the gallon to what they were selling. Just a thought.
