LarryBoy, not in Seattle - it has been going UP! $2.79 gal right now...


Same in Oregon................

Is it my emagination or is it the west coast "blue states" getting
stuck with high prices. Dont forget Hawaii. Oh, I forgot they put a
PRICE CAP on their fuel cost. Seems that state thinks their people dont
deserve to get screwed by the fuel retailers.
Gee what would happen if all the states put a price cap on fuel prices?


It MIGHT work if they put a wholesale price cap on the price of fuel
coming into the state. Price caps at the retailer just pinch his
margins and the cost of sodas in the mini-mart has to go up.
