What do you want to bet that the same thing is happening with 100LL? So much for U.S. anti-trust laws. |

According to the article a case has been filed with the U.S. District Court in SF. That is the U.S. anti-trust law right there. -Robert |

How is "rolling back subsidies" subsidizing oil companies (i.e. "rollback" means stopping, not starting)? You guys are working in sound bytes and not actually reading what you are posting. -Robert |

That isn't right. It is only recently since the tide turned in Congress that the House has authored a bill to roll back those payments of our tax dollars to profiteering oil companies (whom it now appears have been guilty of price fixing). |

So much for U.S. anti-trust laws. Yup...keeping prices to retailers high will really help their sales, and running their retailers out of business will help, too. Here's a dollar: buy a clue. |

One man's "subsidies" is another man's tax break for employing Americans, etc. I don't know what the subsidides were based on. (whom it now appears have been guilty of price fixing). What country do you live in? In the U.S. they are not guilty of price fixing until so determined by a court of law. Being charged with something does not equal being guilty (at least in the U.S.) -Robert |
