I never understood how these companies can raise the price of gasoline they have already paid one price for.
These big oil companies keep reporting record profits. Not a real shock. I just wish they would save some of that oil to use as lubricant everytime they bend us consumers over.

They have to refill those holding tanks too. They're selling what's in the ground on what it will cost to refill em.
