gas in most states are above 2.70 a gallon. sound like you live in no man land. also even those gas has gone down it did not go down to what is was before the really big increases. so even thought gas has gone down it still cost more than what is was before. so yes gas still cost more.
No man's land? NJ is densely populated, this isn't the north slope of Alaska LOL
There are several states with prices under $3. While it is higher than it was before, it has fallen sharply, yesterday was the biggest one day decline for the national average in history. If your gas is too expensive, write your Congressman, and either get rid of the boutique fuel that's raising your price, or tell them the voters will vote them out unless they lower taxes. |

said by battleop:Since your gas prices have dropped can your employer expect a reduction the rates they pay you each week? those who are self-employed or get reimbursements have seen a bigger allowance already. For those who aren't self-employed, transportation is not the company's responsibility, therefore, it isn't part of normal pay anyway. |

Sorry, you don't understand the point. Using gas as an excuse is lame if in fact, there is no reduction when gas prices fall, and they have been falling hard. Too many blame things on higher energy prices, but they do it also when they are falling, then many times don't readjust. I'm not the one being hypocritical for pointing out facts. I'll take back my comments if and only if Comcast lowers prices if current trends in the energy markets continue. If they are so sensitive to gas prices that they feel the need to explain it in an increase, then they have opened themselves up to legitimate criticism if prices fall and they don't drop the rates. They would have been better off saying that costs of operations increased.
Simple as that. |

Stockton, CA.
Just saw the first $2.99 in years around here-at the station at the end of my street.
Guess where I'll be dropping $20 in at on Monday on the way to work? Everyone else near the freeway is still at least $3.09 to $3.15. Be interesting to see on Monday if they have fallen down to the same level.
The fuel truck was parked there yesterday when I left though, and the new price was up when I came back, so he must have got a real good rate on that delivery to drop down 7 cents. |
