UNLESS his input costs went up by 400%, then everyone may follow because everyone needs the margin relief.

You are forgetting that retailers input has gone up by about the same amount as the price of the gasoline has, and comparing that to a commodity that hasn't.

Seriously just stop, I'm not the one insulting your intellegence, even if I wanted to I can't compete with your comments.

Still looking for that proof of collusion ... how many times do I have to ask until you actually provide some? If I knew the answer to that I'd ask that many times in one post just so I can see the proof to your arguement.

I have given you examples, give me proof there is not? Here is an article for you to read but I am sure your point will be the government cleared the companies, of course they did they make the tax money. You can't insult my intelligence, anyone who believes the gas companies are not working together definetely is not threat to me,lol.
