Maybe the high costs are to simply nudge people away from petrol?
Most folks believe the ends justify the means. 
it seemed as soon as smokes hit $7 a pack it cut down sales 50% in Michigan

Remember the terrible profit loss BP incurred when their oil blowoff preventer failed in the Gulf? They sadly made only $5 billion that quarter instead of $8 billion. 
I cant even imagine how they survived.

Your gallon price isn't much more than we pay for a litre

They are changing out the pumps at Vons to accept $10+ gas prices.

Filled up at 4.59/gallon this morning. Who cares. It's just money.

I definitely care. Especially sense we are emptying our SPR and it’s not having any affect on price. It is making us less prepared and secure if something happens over in Hunter Biden’s eastern home.

I think the gist of the post was they are not identifying the E15 dispensers clearly. That is not the current price in southeast Michigan. It’s $4.59 a gallon. There is no way this junk gas is $2.00 a gallon cheaper.

Mikaw I am still only marginally less jealous given we are paying $9.40 per US gallon
