The speculators keep pushing up the price of oil until it kills the economy and puts more people out of work.

They "edged up" by twenty cents per gallon around Western Michigan yesterday. When prices rise, there is often no edging going on at all. They tend to edge downward, but when they go the other way, the term "rocketed" seems more useful and appropriate.

Shouldn't go up at all. Should be lower. Everything above $40--60Gal is fraud.

Slammed up $.25 in the last 2 hours here. It's the typical unilateral bounce up that stations do every week or 2 so they can slowly trickle down again. It's a game.

gas price trend in St Louis area is edging lower, penny by penny. I suspect we are sitting on a flood of inventory and competition is taking some effect.

prices go up everywhere by 10 and 20 cents, but only drop 4 or 5. We know it's greed. But now we know it's not just Pig Oil, it's Specu-bankers too.

Went up 10 cents a gallon here. Seems that would make better news than 1/2 cent a gallon.
