I thought our economy was based on supply and demand and creative marketing to get a consumer. perfect! the government now wants to tell someone just how much profit they must make.

The same old song of the strings of government puppets being pulled by the big shots. bah humbug to our federal and state/municipal governments. and, oh, Larry, finally an american who realizes that “rape” is the appropriate word to describe what the oil companies are doing to the american consumer; not to mention the automotive giants who won’t put efficient fuel injection systems in our vehicles/the feds can tell them they have so much time to do it, but nothing is being done.

All you have to do is put money on their gift card. By doing this customers can save two to three cents per gallon. Is this different? Maybe because this chain may own their own gas station but where does this station get their gas? From my understanding all gas comes from the same places. This discounts violate Wisconsin "unfair sales act" - I think it is the other way around. We, the American Citizen, are being violated by the "unfair sales act" because of the high prices of gas.

How can we see as much as 15 cents difference in gas prices at the pump with BP, Hess, and Citgo stations in different places throughout the state? Typical Bush-league government BS.
