You know, I just went online to look up personality disorders. I was curious what Dave would be diagnosed with - his inability to address all his constant mistakes/wrong predictions/lies and his constant paranoia that big business is out to run prices up interested me.

Turns out it's not far off from our friends Stewox and ABWX, and the diagnoses would likely be the same for all three of them.

Thanks Dave. You've helped me learn something today.

You should really wipe that white stuff off from around your mouth from your robber baron buddies before you drip on the keyboard.

LOL, you're the only supporter of your petition.

I think even if he actually gets 100k signatures the President/Senate/Congress will ignore the request as the government makes a decent amount off of the taxes on the exported gasoline as well as the refineries employ quite a few Americans (production/maintenance/administrative/transport) that would be affected by a ban.

Don't know if this was mentioned yet, but if you live in CA, prepare to bend over next year because of a new carbon gas tax:

http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2014/08/27/california-hidden-gas-tax/

Estimates of the cost of the tax vary. The California Air Resources Board, the Golden State's premier anti-pollution agency, predicts the new tax will raise gasoline prices from 20 cents to $1.30 per gallon. A prominent state senator who helped author the bill estimated the cost at 40 cents a gallon.

Californians elected the people that are going to bend them over.

If they don't stop and fight them they deserve every bit up their asses and then some.

my local station increased by 10 cents today, from 3.39$ to 3.49$

extrapolating this into the future, we will be paying 39.99$ per gallon on 9/4/2015 :eek:

Jumped to $3.69 here.

This is a week after the Labor Day Holiday.

What is the fucking lame excuse for price gouging this time?

There is a shit ton of oil, tons of gasoline because they are exporting it like mad, no Hurricanes in the Gulf, didn't declare War anywhere that I know of.

Is this because Joan Rivers died???

AAA predicts fall gas price decline



The AAA auto club is predicting that gas prices in the U.S. will decline in September despite unrest in volatile areas around the world.


The auto club attributed the likely decline to a combination of reduced driving demand in the fall and a switch to a cheaper winter blend by gasoline manufacturers.


“The big crunch in summer travel is done and most of us can look forward to lower gas prices during the next few months,” AAA spokesman Avery Ash said in a statement. “If we can get through September without any major refinery or overseas problems, we should see more gas stations drop below $3.00 per gallon this fall.”

Only for the region you live in McOwned, the rest of the country is already seeing lower gas prices.

Gas prices at 4-year low for a Labor Day weekend
Gasoline prices are wrapping up the summer at their lowest for a Labor Day weekend since 2010.

The relief comes as gasoline demand is down 1.4 percent in the last month while gasoline supplies are up slightly. Crude oil inventories, though down from a year ago, are still more than ample to meet demand, which will soften even more after the vacation season ends.

“We’re in good shape,” said James Williams, analyst for WTRG Economics, which tracks energy markets.

On Friday, the nationwide average gas price was $3.44 compared with $3.56 a year ago, according to AAA. Prices in the Kansas City area on the Missouri side averaged $3.24, down from $3.52 a year ago. Prices were a few cents higher on the Kansas side because of higher fuel taxes.

You will, but only if you subscribe to some dishonest math. ;)

So, let me get this straight.....you still haven't hit $4/gal even after your price suddenly spiked to $3.69? And this after two .30 spikes you cried about on 8/1 and 8/21?

So, still haven't hit $4 and held? Damn, I'd have figured after .60 increase last month and now this spike so early in this month, you'd surely be over $4 finally, yet you say it's now at $3.69.

So I guess when you posted the first price spike on 8/1 of the .30 increase, you were below $3/gal?


Ohhhhh.....I forgot, you have almost equal price declines you never mention.

Got it.

I filled up yesterday at lunch for $3.48/gallon (suburb of Indy). Haven't left the house to check prices today but I'm pretty sure it isn't $4/gallon. LOL @ Dave.

Rockets and Parachutes, even your paid Thugs like Gas Buddy describe the swings that way.

Oh for math I don't know if your state has it like Indiana but you should go online and take a basic math course since you are so confused.
