It never stops galling me, how in the spring, and in the fall, energy prices rise, and our "experts" in government ALWAYS cite "an unforeseen spike in demand."
IDIOTS.
It gets old in winter, so people need heating oil...duh!
People want to drive in the spring for vacation...duh!
For YEARS we've heard the same, lame excuses...
And the fact that refineries are forced to shut down so they can change over to different "boutique" blends of gasoline mandated by State and Federal regulations...
The refineries have to change formulation for the change of seasons at least here in California.
