“Its not just gasoline were talking about here”

Absolutely. Kerosene, diesel, LPG gas, the base chemicals for most crop pesticides/insecticides/fungicides, plastic soda bottles, road asphalt, the list goes on and on. We’re going to get hit from every angle if petroleum prices soar and stay there for any length of time.

You hit it right there. Hopefully we can keep putting THAT message out “there” and try to make folks understand. “Wanting” high oil prices is gonna kill us quick.

The increases will be higher than the actual cost because of the gouging factor.
If something costs more and the price is raised to offset it the price will be much higher than he actual increased cost. Experience has shown that to be true. - Tom
