[QUOTE="Up In Smoke, post: 5239806, member: 79702"] You should have said "NO" and refused to pay the inflated prices. The horrible oil companies (and investors) that are raking in record profits today are the same people who lost their asses in 2020. Inflation doesn't have to be a real time cause and affect (supply and demand) phenomenon. The Federal Government threw money at virtually every industry in 2020 minus gas and oil. The industry received PPP but still eliminated more than 60k jobs. Oil prices today are not a supply and demand problem, IMO, but a recovery of what was lost problem. The gas and oil industry took in around 7 billion in relief money but lost an estimated 1 trillion dollars of revenue in 2020. [/QUOTE]
