A few days ago, gas shot up about a quarter a gallon. We were told it was because of the concern over Iran holding those British sailors.
Okay, that crisis is over. So guess what? Gas has shot up another 15 cents.
Greedy bastards.

See, they learned that if they jump the price to $3 a gallon really fast, the whole country screams very loudly and they get a lot of negative feedback. If they keep inching it up 5-10 cents at a time, everyone sort of gets 'used to it' a little at a time and they won't get the gub-mint slap down.

Solid economics. I am impressed by their acumen, personally.
Soulless dogs? Sure. But they're moving Product.
