quote:I read the article, which is just someones opinion, and I disagree. I have seen something similar work. When I flew corporate aviation a certain FBO chain "Airplane Gas Station" started charging exorbitant fees or minimum gas purchase just to park on their ramp. Well there was a boycott started to not use the said FBO Chain until the practice was stopped. After a short time they discontinued the practice. Remember we are not in a gas rationing situation there is plenty of gas they are just gouging us. There are almost always alternatives to a certain chain just across the street.
If the current gas situation was truly market driven in a non-monopolistic environment I would agree with the link.
Good reply and I agree. I also saw a similar situation change things. The trouble with people today is they are lead by the media, such as TSC reads an article and believes it. You make it too easy for the big guys.
The main reason gas prices are where they are is in a lame duck situation. Want more high prices and every advantage given to the big guys, vote republican again.
