Has everyone else noticed that -- when unrefined/raw crude oil barrel- 
prices increase, there is a near-INSTANT increase in retail pump- 
prices for the finished, refined product ... but when crude-oil  
barrel-prices decrease ... gee gollie gosh ... it seems to take WEEKS  
for the retail prices to similarly subside.

That's called "free enterprise" and "marketplace competition" ...  
cartel-style!
