JH jumped to $3 per gallon in Des Moines, as of this morning.

Snicker Uh, Jay, that would be free market entrepeneurs. Or have
you suddenly gone righteous/socialist on us?


Thousands of gas stations jacking gas prices nationwide, in lock-step with
each other, because of a trumped up "disaster" (and in the face of the
release of the Strategic Oil Reserve, which will totally off-set any
effect of Katrina) is not "entrepreneurship" -- it's criminal.

The strategic oil reserve will do nothing. It is refining capacity that's
the problem. Gas prices are rising in Europe with US wholesale buyers
looking to European refineries to supply gas.
