The ******* media and sheep that cling on to every word they say loving having people think it's ONE guy in a in a big corporate office playing with prices.
Seriously though guys, before everyone starts jumping on the "oil companies are bad" bandwagon again research some stuff and realize that these companies don't sell just gas, they don't sell just oil, they sell energy and have their hands in making a ton of products we use every day.
With that said, I noticed the other week that the prices were creeping up...it sucks but there's nothing we can do about it...well aside from some obvious things but we might disrupt the habitat for the rare African spotted meal worm or something...

I can understand that...then why are they having record setting profites every quarter..My coworkers wife works for exxon and she seems to have a different opinion lol.
