[...Until the government tries to use price controls. Then there won't be any oil or gas at any price.]

It doesn't even have to be price controls. After my supermarket raises the price of Hunt's Snack Pack pudding by a non-inflationary 30% from $0.99 to $1.29, they then put it on sale for $0.99, or at least that's what the empty shelf says. -g-
