They probably buy it from China!


I thought it was a law that all fuel had to be lead free!

It has gone down around here. Last week best price I could find was $4.79. Just got it at $4.65

The US consumption has dropped and the price dropped, go figure.


End of heating season demands for #2 which is essentially Diesel with no road tax dye, so a bit more fuel available for the speculators to lower the price on the commodities market.

I heard something on a local talk radio show, the topic was about what the law makers are working on to slow the speculators from driving up the prices. One bill that is in committee is, if you speculate and buy you must actually take possession , no more paper sales of inventory. I think it sacred some of the speculators a bit into being a bit more conservative with moving the shell of money around, thus causing a less aggressive market and lowering of prices. Hopefully this will be enough of a threat to stop the gouging and excessive profit taking.
