Fuel prices are an issue of National Importance. If the government sold quality fuel for these prices it would affect the entire marketplace and industry. Instead of a family purchasing 2 packs of hamburger, for example, they would purchase 3 or 4 as the hamburger would become cheaper, which would require industry to respond by hiring more employees.I believe the entire economy would turn around on a dime. People would still be able to purchase fuel from Shell or Chevron at $5.00 a gallon if they'd like to, but FEDERAL GAS SUPERCENTERS would provide them the option to purchase fuel for $2.00 a gallon. So I believe the government should buy oil, refine it, and provide security at such retail centers to prevent attacks against civillians by the fuel retail industry tycoons.
