“If historical averages were true today, people would be paying about 30 cents less per-gallon at the pump based upon the differential between unfinished gas and gasoline at the pump. So he’s asked for the FTC to take a look at this.”

RS: Oil majors have raised gasoline prices for the sake of their own profits, US President Joe Biden said Tuesday as his administration looked for ways to lower prices at pumps nationwide at the beginning of the holiday travel season.

The White House has upped the pressure on oil markets amid a spike in energy prices that has driven overall US inflation to record levels.

  1. When refined gas and other sources of energy derived from natural resources become a regulated public utility, we may see the end of this monopolistic behavior. That never happened and never will in the USA. Congress won’t allow it.

  2. If you can trust the banksters to do anything, it’s to maximize profits any way they can. Biden will be the fall guy in this because he agreed to be… to stay alive, maybe?

  3. I thought we ran out of gas during Carter. It is interesting how it fluctuates according to US posture on various things, like assassination.

  4. Break and split up the Standard Oil more century ago at 1911 it didn’t do much good… now in 110 anniversary they are coming back for revenge !!! 🙂
