Where is that? That has to be Hawaii or something.

That is Atlanta, GA! Saw that on the news last night. Gougers should be jailed.

Yep...Shell and BP stations are getting hammered in the SE. I paid 3.50 a gallon...but I am about 45 miles north of Atlanta. Our fuel is trucked in anyway...so the pipeline really has not affected fuel supply up here.

Atlanta has 3 gasoline pipelines supplying it. Usually it has some of the cheapest prices because of the over supply. Something's not right with prices double the national average. Hope they persecute and prosecute those gougers.

I thought Hawaii just passed a bill that caps their prices?
Something like, the wholesale cost of gas can be no more than $2.15ish.

Im sorry...its supply and demand at work. If the prices go up people will conserve. If the prices stay low while supply is low, everybody and their mother will try to fuel up everything that moves. This by itself will create more of shortage and a serious problem. Do I like paying 5 or 6 a gallon...hell no..but if that is what it takes to make sure we have plenty of gas...so be it. It is not the gas stations fault. It is the lack of supply of gas...and the oil companies are charging because demand is high...and supply is low. This is where the government needs to stay out of the way and let CAPITALISM take its course.
