Disgusting news, but those wonderful speculators are back driving the price of gas up again.
It was $2.50 here in the Fox Lake area (45 miles northwest of Chicago) just a little over a week ago. Today, the two wonderful Phillips 66 stations in Fox Lake raised their price to $2.70 from $2.64!!! They are always the first to raise prices these days, but when they do, you have to get gas fast from the others because they'll be going up soon.
I understand the price of oil has been going up, but just wait until the time comes to drop gas prices. It will be s-o s-l-o-w.
The government is trying to stimulate the economy, but these spikes hurt the economy. There should be some way to rein these speculators in.
Since we're nearing the end of the summer driving season, prices should be dropping, not going up.
