The sad thing is half the country will believe gas station owners have control over gas prices because Brandon said so.

Also if the pump owners don’t make money when the price is going up they will go bankrupt when the price goes down. They have to pay for the entire shipment of gas upfront. Then sell what they have in the tank for whatever the going price is. So while it is going up they make money, but when it goes down they lose money.

If I owned a station I'd jack my prices to $20.00/gal as a middle finger. Galt, baby!

Joe biden did not finish the sentence. The question is... “do it now...” or else what? How precisely is Joebama going to force these companies to reduce their price at the pump. Price Controls? Is that his big plan? He doesnt think that price controls will lead to shortages? What kind of misery index are they going to kick off over that lame move?

Gas station owners make their money selling high volumes of gasoline at very small markup per gallon. High gas prices mean lower sales volumes which translates into higher markup per gallon to cover fixed costs of doing business.

biden claims that gas and upcoming food shortage is Putin’s fault. If Putin is running America then why do we need joey? I thought biden was OUR PRESIDENT. So either DO something or get out of the way, biden. If EVERY PROBLEM is someone else’s fault then YOU are clearly not leading and have no vision. Why do we need you. You have nothing to offer. Just sit there and we can get the REAL pres. Trump to take over. Problem solved.

That’s funny, I don’t remember a declaration of war. I don’t even remember a Congressional authorization for the use of military force. Have I been misinformed?

As I understand it, the gasoline is often a loss leader, while the profit is made in the associated convenience stores.
