In Ga, The gas was Never $1.25, I have no clue where you got that. I am in Ga and Sunday It was $3.99 a gallon. Yesterday (Monday) the QT stores were out of gas and by afternoon the pumps were running again. 2 tankers at a time were pulling into them. Racetrac stores were open and had gas. It was $2.34 yesterday. What I saw Sunday was people hoarding gas and filling their tanks up. I always have at least 20 gallons stored after the debacle a few years ago when everyone was hoarding gas back then.
the best thing about this site,boots on the ground ty
Why is filling your tank up hoarding? I am sure given the chance to fill up, you would only buy 4 gallons??? What about the 20 gallons you have stored?
Personally, I have no problem with filling your tank, or having some stored, but knock off the hoarding bullshit. You had 20 gallons stored. That was being prepared, not hoarding, filling up your tank is watching out for you, and yours, not hoarding.
Panic buying, most of the little independent stores gouge people. When Katrina happened it was a lot worse, I saw people fistfighting at the pumps, people trying to pull in front of the next in line at the pump. When a station had gas you couldnt even pull in. Some people were filling numerous gas cans and cars were running out of gas just trying to get some. It was really sad and it was like a Armageddon scenario.
Now for your comment. My 20 gallons is for 3 cars and a lawn mower and push mower if that is ok with you. Filling your tank is fine, but 7-10 5 gallon cans, milk jugs and anything they could put gas in is what I saw, Did you ever see that? You need to relax and experience what I experienced Twice, Billy.
BP refinery in Whiting just shut down to 50% capacity because of a problem in their cracking unit. Torrence Refinery in CA just had a major flare “burp” and area is shut down. This is the big one. It’s all about fracked gas, and how explosive and corrosive it is, because it contains frackteria, a never before scene bacteria.
nonsense
Researchers analyzing the genomes of microorganisms living in shale oil and gas wells have found evidence of sustainable ecosystems taking hold there — populated in part by a never-before-seen genus of bacteria they have dubbed ‘Frackibacter.’

Someone forgot to tell the west coast, price has been the same for a while.
What they will never do is let the meatbags run out of gas and TV signal / propaganda. Probably the ratburgers too. Everything else they can take away and there will be no revolt.
I got news for you, there is no shortage of fuel because of this broken pipeline you see it is more of an opportunity by the states to declare and emergency to get federal dollars flowing to them, just as much as it is an opportunity for gas stations to hike up their prices. But there is no shortage of fuel it just an opportunity to make money.
This may sound weird- but has anyone thought that the ruptured fuel lines, I believe 3 ruptured last week- happened on purpose? How often does this sort of thing really happen? This causes people to become stranded at home or wherever, short-tempered, scared and then-boom! National Guard? Martial Law? Just a crazy thought. Responses?
