ToolinIt Champion Author Colorado Posts:1,803 Points:889,820 Joined:May 2010	Message Posted: Nov 17, 2012 12:35:16 AM Ignore ToolinIt Report Abuse Diesel fuel prices aren't falling and crude oil prices are on the rise. I'd say that we are heading to a depression with the re-election of the Obama admin with their 'drunk sailor' spending, allowing the EPA to run amok and not controlling speculation in commodities w/i the Wall Street banks that get nearly 0% interest rate loans to play with in the oil markets. The U.S. taxpayers bailed out these Wall Street banks and now they are shafting us.

We were nearing the $3 mark and several stations were selling at 2.99 for a couple of days before the spikemeisters GREEDway (Speedway) spiked. First to 3.49 then pancaked higher to 3.59. Market prices do not justify the price - it is just to maintain their high margins - high profits - beyond belief. Monopoly power is being exercised constantly. Grrrr.
