the reserves don't change on a holiday weekend, yet prices go up. reserves don't change the first week of sumer, yet prices go up. doesn't really matter how much oil is held in the domestic reserves, the gas companies will happily jack up prices every chance they get jsut because they can.
the illusion about where oil comes from or how much is in reserve effecting prices has only shown up since the advent of gasoline diluted with ethanol. they get to put out an inferior product, that you have to buy more of because of decreased economy, at a larger margain, all because you have no choice.
gas prices are an economic shell game that special interest groups and uninformed politicians use to wreck our wallets.
