petrol for thought
Posted: Wed Apr 26, 2006 2:23 pm
so, after a great deal of reading up on petrol prices etc etc...and assuming that all the shit theyre saying is true...the question remains....if prices 'fluctuate' so much, why do they only fluctuate up 95% of the time?

Simple - making a profit. You're always going to sell something for more than it costs you. The more you can sell it for over cost, the more money you make.

Logical... yes. Ethical... not really. But until the Government steps up and does something - they won't, they're enjoying all of the extra tax revenue too much - all we can do is bitch and moan.

Either that, or we actually make use of our huge expanses of fertile land and grow our fuel!
