Falcon, my point exactly. The market does dictate the pricing. And, I am most definitely not in favor of nationalizing any commodity. But let's face the fact that in the case of oil and refined fuel production the supplier has in the past (remember the '70's oil crisis) and likely will continue to control production in order to maintain highly profitable revenue margins. It's the suppliers ability to control the market through limiting supply and not government legislation that has created the most recent hike in prices.
