[QUOTE="flaboy, post: 121509, member: 1726"] You can bet on it. Last year before we got hit by two hurricanes 1/2 inch plywood was $18. Just before we got hit it jumped to $30 a sheet. It stayed that way until most had made their repairs after the hurricanes and then it went back down. With all the rebuilding that will need to be done in LA, and Miss., you can bet a lot of folks are going to get rich. Something sure needs to be done about this I think. Our Ag commissioner was on TV telling everyone that gas stations could not raise their prices unless they got a new shipment. 99% of the stations in my area jumped ~30 cents a gallon the day after. I was in one station when they got a call to raise their price. I asked if they got a new shipment and they said "no, the main office called and told us to go up". Our commissioner said they all "could be fined". Sure, I believe that. It's a real shame when people take advantage of folks in an emergency. [/QUOTE]
