But when the price of crude falls, the price stays up until the cheaper fuel works through the system. This is definitly price gouging. Either the price should immediately go up and down tied to the price of Brent crude, or the price up or down should be delayed as it works through the system.

Oh, wait, I forgot. Republicans piss on everything good for America.
