[QUOTE="Frankie, post: 374463, member: 13"] All true. But the oil companies weren't posting billions of dollars in profits and paying millions of dollars in bonuses to retiring CEOs back then either. It's greed, Caustic. Why should I (as an example for the common man) give up my comforts when oil company Execs are making millions? Does anyone on this board remember when gas stations were really independently owned and they had "gas wars?" One station would lower their price a few cents and all the cars would come there. So the guy across the street would lower his price a few more cents and everyone would come to his place. It was pretty fun if you needed gas. Recently I saw a guy say that he RAISED his prices because the store down the street raised theirs! He had to stay competitive, he said. :oops: [/QUOTE]
