NewsGas Prices Climb 9 Cents
3/9/2009 8:33:22 AM | Associated Press
Ohio gasoline prices have risen 9 cents since early last week after remaining fairly steady for about a month.

A survey from AAA, the Oil Price Information Service and Wright Express shows Monday's statewide average for regular is $1.95 per gallon, up from $1.86 a week ago.
One month ago, regular was averaging $1.83 at Ohio pumps.
Analysts at AAA say it's almost impossible to forecast where gas prices will go because the turmoil on Wall Street and within the U.S. banking industry have led to chaotic trading on energy markets. The cost for oil has been zigzagging above and below $40 per barrel.
Ohio gas prices remain far below the levels of a year ago, when the state's motorists were paying an average of $3.21 for regular.

The headline should read.... "Area Gas Stations Rip Off Local Consumers".
It's funny that i would read articles saying that there is a glut of oil/gasoline in the market because people are driving less and less semi's on the road because of lower freight tonnage, yet the price at the pump slower climbs. There is always an excuse from the oil companies as to why. makes you wonder what is the true reasons.

This was the original cause and the beginning of our economic problems. The big oil companies are greedy worms. Snake DUNG. Wall Street also gets the blame.

Okay, let me get this straight. I read an article about how much surplus we have right now, they have tankers sitting full out at sea and our on land storage area's are full. So why are the gas prices going up? Hmm..... Okay Obama time to sqaush the big oil people, how about Bush first! Never like that man.

Up again, down again...this morning I saw gas at several stations for $1.85 after it being at $1.99 over the weekend. The supply and demand did not change that dramatically overnight!
The two "G"s rear their ugly heads again...gouging and greed. When will it all end?
