Gas Prices

[Chevy-Art]

It is not the fair amount of profit that the oil companies make,
Just my X inflation=

But it is also the oil companies taking all the risk to get the stuff out of the ground. The government taxes .31 cents a gallon for doing nothing.

By fair I mean reasonable, thanks for the chance to clarify.

We agree, The oil companies make [ I can not remember the exact amount ] make a fair amount % of profit - but
Less than average compared to other types of companies. Profit is a good thing, necessary, with out profit we could not buy gasoline.
Maybe the government should explore for, drill, refine, transport, and sell gasoline at the post office.

Then the price would be afFORDable.
