    i filled up my talon yesterday night at 2.91 a gallon for 93 because i knew this shit was going to happen. I also got some for the mustang but hell may just put race gas in it now for the same price as 93. I spent like 28 bucks on the talon which i have never done before. I'm glad i just have an 8 mile or so drive to work and never have to deal with rush hour traffic.

    Because of the way people act, freaking out and piling up at the tanks, the prices skyrocket. You don't see that shit with any other basic retail need. Like when everyone's hitting up the bread and milk, you don't see the grocery stores being like, "fuck, let's make all the bread $5.00!"

    The thing that bothers me about gas prices is that, a store owner has XX amount of gallons that he was going to sell for $2.80 a gallon, he gets word that there's a shortage, and suddenly he jacks his prices. The government should be able to protect us from this type of activity. But, really, its our own damn fault for hording anything that we assume we may not have 100% of in a few days.

    The truth is most of our gas comes from the port of savannah, the pipelines that supply us are back up and running in limited capacity. There's not going to be a shortage, some gas stations are out of gas cus all the idoits decided to fill up their cars at once. If you did that on a regular day, the same thing would happen. I HATE people!
