There is profit and then there is greed.

A meager ten percent profit is not greed. You might want to read Dr. Sewell's basic Economics book. You don't seem to have a clue about markets.

All you can think about is "poor me". The rules haven't changed since I started driving in 1960. If I can't afford the gas, I stay home. PERIOD.

I think it's ironic, the extreme sacrifices that "the greatest generation" went through during WWII. Now the country is filled with whiney snots complaining that gas prices are too high. Grow up. There are bigger problems in this country than what you pay for a tank of gas. Which ones are you solving?

Do you REALLY believe they are making only 10% profit when their total cost is probably only about a buck? Remember, when gas was so cheap back in '99? They were STILL making a profit when gas was sellinbg for 80 cents a gallon and taxes were half of that!
