We the people argue that the price of gasoline per barrel be relative to the cost of gasoline per gallon.

The last time the price per barrel of oil was less than 80 cents per gallon, we paid 1.00 a gallon. The crude is now being towed in at 30 cents per barrel, and yet we are paying over 2.00 a gallon. This is price gauging, and it needs to be stopped. A penalty needs to placed on the people and companies that are responsible for imposing these costs!
