Why is government allowing gas gouging?

Oil companies have us brainwashed to believe we should expect to pay world prices for our gas. Well then, the price of oil went to $100-plus, our gas went to 133.9 per litre. Now the price of oil is below $80 a barrel.

Oil companies have us brainwashed to believe we should expect to pay world prices for our gas. Well then, the price of oil went to $100-plus, our gas went to 133.9 per litre. Now the price of oil is below $80 a barrel. You would think our gas should drop to at least 80 cents per litre.

Why is the government allowing this gouging? It must be greed. It seems strange with us with a oil refineries in our backyard why we are paying 133.9 in PG?
