There was a fire in the largest refinery on the west coast yesterday. The price of gas and diesel will be going up soon.

It already has in the Midwest because of a pipe line that was down from Canada. There excuse is that price increases will be more region now so it looks like it will only effect the west coast.

I guess they have been anticipating the fire becuase for the last 2-3 weeks the price of gas or diesel has gone up .15-.20 a gal.

Yes, that's it. A refinery fire that's a good excuse to increase the cost of fuel. ......... or perhaps it's the "Winter Blend" or the "Summer Blend." Wait, that's not it..... let me think...... plant maintenance. Ya that's it..."Plant Maintenance." BANK ACCOUNT MAINTENANCE" IS MORE LIKELY.

Don't get me wrong, it's their fuel and pricing is their business. Just please stop with all of these BS excuses to put it to us.

Of course our so called leaders, could even the playing field by drilling and refining, but then that might harm a jack rabbit. Trade a fuel shortage for a jack rabbit shortage..... I don't think so. LOL.

Please, no flaming. Just my thoughts.

Most likely it is our fuel coming out of our federal lands being sold to the highest bidders from overseas.
