How does everybody else have gas cheaper than here!? $2.999 for regular or 10% ethanol. I am sitting on an area that supposedly has more oil under it than the Middle East and oil activity is absolutely nutz, yet we pay the highest for fuel. Go figure!

That's what got Chavez installed. He's not living in the real world. He nationalized all the foreign oil companies, seized their assets. No wonder he can sell fuel for pennies.
I don't buy fuel from Chavez's companies in the US (Valero).

It is going to keep going up as long as the Fed is devalueing the dollar. Oil took a good jump after the Fed annouced it's 600 billion bond buy back. The government has two ways to generate cash, taxation and printing.
Looks like we are headed Back to the Future (Carter Days) 16% inflation. Crude prices are trendin back down a little due to problems in Ireland and Spain and the dollar has regained a little strength back. Korea bears watching. .

Valero is American based and traded on the NYSE. Actually one of the companies that does not utilize imported crude oil. Headquarters is located in San Antonio. Valero comes from Misión San Antonio de Valero, better known worldwide as The Alamo.
Chavez owns a large interest in CITGO. Avoid them like the plague.

Don't believe that as crude is a comodity that is swapped all the time across the docks.
Son was a dock operator on the Texas City docks, tanker would pull in and barrels would be split between BP, Marathon and Valero . Tanker would be lightered from a supertanker that came from Saudi, North Sea, Venezuela etc. It was not unusal for tankers to bought and traded several times before being refined.
Here on Bolivar roads tankers wait from all over the world to discharge crude. This is a light day have seen it looking like Walmart parking lot after the welfare checks come out.
