I do wish anti-gouging laws would only apply to regular gasoline. Allow premium to float to whatever the market will demand. Midgrade should have a more relaxed anti-gouging rule.
- josephcsible 5y agoWhat do you think the benefit of this plan would be exactly?
- loonster 5y agoHappy medium between not gouging desperate people and still ensuring there is some gas available to those that truly need it. If gas is $3 a gallon, someone with 1/2 tank may stop and fill up. If gas is $30 a gallon, he will be more likely to drive on until he can get far enough away that gas prices would not be high. This leaves gas available for those that are running close to empty and will not make it to the cheaper gas.
- josephcsible 5y agoBut what does that have to do with regular vs. premium gas?
- loonster 5y agoIts designating some product to be a reserve (market price) and others to be anti-gouging. Making regular be anti-gouging would be easier to enforce than other hybrid methods.
