Gee what would happen if all the states put a price cap on fuel prices?
BobYou don't remember "price controls" put on everything by the socialists in
the US Gummit back a few decades? Remember the gas lines? food lines?
Scarcity as products were diverted away from price controls to free market

When I was a kid i fond something called a ration card for fuel. I
asked my mom about it. She described how fuel, rubber, sugar, and other
things were rationed in the war.
Seemed to work just fine then.
But then there werent any Republicans crying about big government.
