I appreciate your insight; but to me it just seems like corperate spin. Last night on the news when they said that gas has gone up 30¢ since the start of the year, I did a double take. The thing is; the gas companies have just been doing these little increases a few cents at a time to (what it seems to me) just pad the bottom line. Each fill costs me a buck or two more; which per $40 fill isn't much. But then before I know it that fill which used to cost me $36 now costs $45.
The thing of it is; I can tell you
exactly how much I will pay in June for natural gas. Why can't gasoline have a stable price like that- or at least have us know when the price will be going up? To me the big difference is the fact that every driver owns a gasoline storage unit; whereas very few homeowners have a natural gas storage unit.
