While on the drop, even with the threat of hurricane Rita, are still too high.
Dammit!
You see, here in California, our gas prices have soared to numbers never before seen or even imagined. Do you know why? Threats of storms on the gulf coast, and 1 storm that actually made landfall.
But, we don’t get our gas or oil from the gulf coast region!
You see, here in Sunny California, we are special. The fucktards at the California Air Resource Board (CARB) see to that. We have a ’special’ formula for our gasoline. It’s not used in any other state, and we don’t export it. Oh yea, the formula changes from summer to winter too.
Since it is so special, we have to make it ourselves. So, nothing imported from Texas.
Of course you need to have some of that ‘black gold’ to produce the gasoline, right? Ours comes from the North Slope, not Texas.
So, my question to you greedy mother fucking oil companies is why am I still paying more than $3.00 a gallon for fuel when the weather that is affecting the south should not have an affect?
I’m all about making a profit, but I’m spending over $400 a month to the gas pumps right now, and really, I’m about fucking tired of it!

It gets worse if Rita takes out the oil in Texas we can expect to pay between 4 to 5 dollars a gallon for gas that was not in anyway effected by the storm. But hey no they aren’t taking advantage of a bad situation they are just doing business as normal right? Greedy jerks I hope that they investvest their profits with a company that will rob them as blind as they are robbing us. In short I hope in general Charma comes and bites them in the Ass
