Gas prices are a wonderful thing. About a week ago I was talking to an acquaintance from Pennsylvania and he was explaining to me how gas stations were gouging people with high gas prices. I asked him how much he pays for gas. He replied “well somewhere around $3 per gallon” coloured with a few obscenities thrown in. I did some quick math to tell him we’re paying over $4 per gallon if I convert it.
He was truly shocked. What I don’t understand is that for every tiny reason, oil prices increase, but they hardly ever come down. They just wait for the next thing that will set them up to increase again. Kinda strange if you ask me.
For instance today oil hit $120 per barrel. If oil is at $120 a barrel, why are the gas prices in the city of Toronto declining? I’m not saying declining gas prices in the GTA are a bad thing, but not understanding how they can decline when oil is going up. Ah well, I’ve been told several times I should stop trying to find logic in the world as nothing ever seems to make sense.
