frankdracman23 Posted August 23, 2015 Author Share Posted August 23, 2015 CHICAGO (WLS) -- As gas prices soar in Illinois and elsewhere in the Midwest, a broken-down Indiana refinery that is allegedly responsible for the price surge is being called on the carpet. "Apart from complaints of price gouging and suspicions of price fixing, many constituents express disbelief that reported problems at various refineries...can cause such direct and immediate effects at the pump" said Michigan Attorney General Bill Schuette on Friday. In a letter to BP America headquarters in Chicago, obtained by the I-Team, Attorney General Schuette asks company executives to "explain what occurred at the BP Whiting Refinery, as well as an estimated return to service and additional information about why this immediately led to a price spike."

Jim Schue Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 Gas prices in Bardstown area have dropped to $2.49, and many places are down to $2.39. They rarely drop this fast after a price spike, which leaves me wondering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
