When a gasoline pipe line failed between Tucson and Phoenix we had a few stations charging up to 3 times the rate. I would like to think those stations are no longer in business.

Wh**ever The Market Will Bear
Has Been Around A Long Time

You'll See Gas Price Jumps On The Day Of Anything
Remember
The Gas At Stations Is Already Delivered And Paid For
See Stuff Like That At The Grocery Too

Pricing under Capitalism is based on what the market can bear. What you are suggesting is a socialist concept, not Capitalism where (G)reed=(O)pertunity=(P)rofits are the names of the game...
