On Feb. 19, the price of oil dropped $2 per barrel while here in our area gasoline prices jumped.
This unexplained jump in prices has a crushing effect on people with fixed incomes as well as the cost of living for everyone else in our area.
With the price of oil dropping I can only suspect more oil company and government greed.
The Canadians are selling oil to the U.S. at discounted prices due to over production and we the Canadians are paying for this discounted sale.
This is much like what happens when we sell power to the U.S. - they get a discount and we get a price increase. Time to declare war.
