If you need to google what a crack spread is then you are no longer allowed to complain about the high price of gas.
People complain about gas prices all the time as if it is their right to buy it at a certain price. The complicated system involved in setting prices is meant to maximize profit based on supply and demand. It is their job to maximize value for their shareholders. If demand drops (IE you refuse to buy gas at high prices) then the price will go down.
There is no conspiracy to rape over the population it's just how a market works.
