There was a gas station owner interviewed on a national tv news
broadcast ( he was an obvious foreigner, India, or someplace like that)
and admitted he increased the price to keep people from buying
gasoline. And get this, he said he might increase it more (it was
already over $3 a gallon!)! So yeah, they are gouging us for gasoline.

www.jacksongasprices.com Doesn't look like any gas price gouging going
on around here.We know to contact the State Attorney General's Office
about stuff like that.I believe all price gougers should be SHOT on

Pricing anything, including gasoline, according to the Law
of Supply and Demand is not "gouging." If that station
owner had priced his (and that is the operative word -
"his") gasoline too high, he wouldn't have sold any. And if
he didn't want to sell all of his (there's that word again)
gasoline at something more than his replacement cost, why
should he have to?

When YOU have something for sale that is suddenly much more
in demand, and there is much less of a supply of it, you
will sell it at a much higher price too - your labor, for
example, or your real estate, or your wheat crop, or your
rare Rembrandt painting, or your ... gasoline.

It sure was convenient that that hurricane hit, otherwise they wouldn't
have a legitimate excuse to gouge. He priced it high on purpose so he
wouldn't sell any. That is what he said. And he was going to raise it
higher. Some stations around where I live have fluctuated the prices on
a daily basis. None have gone to unreasonable lengths to gouge.....
Yet.

And if he didn't want to sell all of his (there's that word again)
gasoline at something more than his replacement cost, why
should he have to?


Rationalizing his inappropriate business practices still doesn't make
what he did right.

will sell it at a much higher price too - your labor, for

No, he was doing it to keep people from buying it. He was doing it to
make all the profits he can on somebody else's shortfall.

How do you suppose he's going to make profits if he doesn't
sell anything???

Guess what? When there is a crop failure in the Texas
cotton crop, _I_ make extra profits from their shortfall -
as I have every right to. So what?

Might be a good idea to get a locking gas cap for your vehicle(s).I dont
know for sure,but some auto parts stores might sell some sort of a
barrier screen thingy that fits down inside the gas tank pipes so as to
prevent anybody from sticking a siphon hose down in there to steal gas
or diesel fuel.I think I know how I can make a few of them for my own
vehicles. www.jcwhitney.com might sell something like that.It would
be a good cottage industry for some people to start making and selling
things like that.Sir/Mam,why is it that your breath smells like
gasoline/diesel fuel?

I have an old Mother Earth magazine around here somewhere that has an
article in it about hooking up one of those three cylinder (I dont
remember if it is gas or diesel engine,I think the brand name of the
engine starts with a Y) Japanese small lawn tractor/mower engines to an
old Triump (brit car) car.I dont remember the gas milege claims in the
article (the magazine dates back to the 1970's) but it is somewhere
around 85 miles or more per gallon.I also have some plans here that I
ordered from somewhere back in the 1960's or 1970's about hooking up an
electric golf cart motor to a Volkswagen car and I have some plans I
ordered back in the 1960's or 1970's about building from scratch a
double compound (something like that,the same compressed air is used
twice) compressed air powered two wheel vehicle.
