Well I agree with that.

But are you arguing with yourself, or did I miss something? You are complaining about high gas prices, and you also don't think the govt should do anything about it... :confused:

What do you think should be done?

edit/add: All I've picked up on is that you think oil companies should voluntarily lower their profit margins, which are already lower than many industries. A) That ain't gonna happen B) I hope it doesn't happen - it would be wrong-headed


FYI - I would agree that oil (and most all) subsidies should be eliminated, but that will increase the price of oil, not reduce it.
