That's because of logistics. They provide the crude, have to ship to the US via pipeline, and then have to bring it back. Just like every other commodity other than seafood. Great veggi's for a time though. 23 hours of sunlight can work wonders for plants.
$2.89 a gallon at the Highway 60 and I-35 intersection today.
Not to mention the refineries are local and transportation closts are lower. Qt is making hundreds of millions a month. I talk to a couple accounting and finance folks who are current or recent exqt employees regularly. They have a large department dedicated to making the most profit per gallon as possible.
A couple weeks ago when gas spiked, qt was 3.79 and across the street at Costco gas was 3.19. People would quit shopping at qt if they ever figured out they’re getting screwed.
And there is only one gas station in town!
Just VOTE in overwhelming numbers, to great for Democrats to cover up, and re-elect President Trump, and we will all see A STABLE OIL MARKET, AND UNDER $2.00 gal gasoline AGAIN, like we did all the time President Trump was in office, REMEMBER? I get a weekly market update from Edward Jones. One of the graphs showed the 10 year treasury rates, and inflation rates, the treasury rates were below the inflation rates, for years up until Jan. of 2021, the exact date Crooked Joe assumed office, and canceled all of President Trump Oil related executive orders, and policies, that allowed us to be ENERGY SELF-SUFFICIENT, for the first, and only time in 50/60 years under both parties leadership! In January of 2021, the INFLATION LINE on this graph went straight up, and stayed far above the treasury rate line until now!! Fuel cost effects EVERYTHING that must be grown, fertilized, sprayed with insecticide, herbicides, harvested, dried, distilled, manufactured, transported, stored, heated, cooled, assembled, not to mentioned the literally thousands of consumer products that use petroleum products, and by-products, in the manufacture process, from candy, to fabrics plastics, medicines, and many, many, more!! If YOU want to change this, QUIT WHINING, AND VOTE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sam’s on Olympia was as $3.14/gal for 87 on Thursday.
