[QUOTE="fishtm2001, post: 5414580, member: 54375"] The president also issued a stern warning to oil and gas companies, urging them not use the storm as an excuse to raise prices on fuel. "Do not, let me repeat, do not use this as an excuse to raise gasoline prices or gouge the American people,” Biden said, to applause from the gathered crowd. “The price of oil has stayed relatively low and kept going down,” he said. “The price of gas should be going down as well. My experts inform me that the production of only about 190,000 barrels a day has been impacted by the storm thus far. That’s less than 2% of the United States daily production, impacted for a very short period of time. “This small, temporary storm impact on oil production provides no excuse, no excuse for price increases at the pump,” Biden said. “None. If gas companies try to use this storm to raise prices the problem I will ask officials will look into whether price gouging is going on. “America’s watching, the industry should do the right thing,” he added. Nice when there's an adult in charge and looking out for the little guy. [/QUOTE]
