But the price is not tied to the price of crude we are told when fuel goes down… so why does it appear to be tied to the price of crude when it goes up? We had a surge of 10% friday on the markets for crude and fuel goes up by 8% a day later. Just a conspiracy theory

In this case price is driven by speculators.

    Exactly. Too bad that not many know gas is purchased and traded no differently than any other commodity.

    Did someone hold your hand to find that info Seamutt. Highly unlikely you could of found that yourself.

      BC strange world . BC hydro second quarterly consumption is down 1740 gigawatt hours and falling . So let’s raise rates . Huh ? Rate payers will be on the hook for 8.2 plus billions ala site C . They already know there is no market for it . So that’s why she’s realized that a canadain grid is her only salvation . Canada with no national grid exemplifies how dumb we are as a nation . I wonder if the Americans would allow us to have a national grid ? Probably not .

    Supposedly, everyone is sitting on full tanks of crude and nobody wants to cutail production. One day these oil companies will site “supply and demand” to validate their high prices. Another day they will site a “forecasted storm which MAY affect production platforms” as a reason to hike prices. Has fuel consumption spiked enough in the last month to justify a raise in prices?
    It does not take much intellect to see that their price gouging is nothing more than greed. They have us by our wallets, if you want to get to work you will pay their price.

      actually their next BS excuse will be they are shutting down refineries for servicing, (right after the Easter holiday rise in prices).

All it takes is for someone to start a rumor and they will up the price. News media is good at this.

    oh it has gone up…Chevron at 15th and the bypass was .879 this morning when I drove by at 9:30ish… Esso and PetroCan on 20th was still .754 at 11:00

Actually it is speculation because of the upcoming meetings being held by the OPEC nations.

just a little co-ordinating, conspiring, consulting and conversation going on among the oil companies….
and we can be sure the price at the pumps will go up a lot fast that it went down.
for every cent they raise the price at the pumps they receive about $1 million a day pure profit.

Costco price – 73.4 ..3pm.

    Still the same just now when I filled up.

Costco Edmonton 53.9

WW3 in 16 days. Saudi’s have re-positioned their F-15’s to Turkey. Turkey has already started shelling the Kurds yesterday. Both say they will remove Assad for attacking the rebels, basically they can’t stand by while isis looses ground.

Turkey wants to occupy Aleppo, the largest city in Syria, as well as the Kurdish areas of Iraq and Syria.

The Saudi’s have reportedly amassed 20,000 tanks, 450 helicopters, and 2200 planes for the invasion.

The Russians have said if they attack that Russia will use tactical nukes to repel the invasion force. The Saudi’s say they call their bluff and will not be backing down. The Saudi’s are reportedly waiting for the all clear from Obama. The Russians say this will amount to the start of WW3.

Basically all our allies including NATO are lining up on the side of isis against Russia… and they are willing to start ww3 to stop the Russians from bombing isis and related islamic extremist groups in Syria… as well as to take our minds off the collapsing global markets and bankster market manipulations as they suck everyone’s pensions dry and blame it on Russia.

So, as a result oil prices are going up. The next two weeks are likely to be as eventful to the next century of mankind as were the early days of August 1914. Banksters think they can cull the flower of mankind once more and get away with it.

Eagleone:-“Banksters think they can cull the flower of mankind once more and get away with it. ”
=========================================================================

Whether any of the other predictions in your above post come true or not, “…in 16 days” or any other time, ‘banksters’ certainly can “…cull the flower of mankind once more and get away with it.” Because nobody ‘we’ elect to office, anywhere, is going to stop them. No Trudeau, no Obama, no Putin, no Sanders, nor Clinton, nor Trump, etc., etc., no one. Ever wonder WHY? Could it be that they’re all scared of the ‘banksters’? Or that perhaps none of them understand how the system, the ‘money system’ that they, and we, have allowed those ‘banksters’ to appropriate as their own, actually works? Or perhaps they do, and they’re too scared to ever try to change it? Scared that their whole world would fall apart if people ever realised they actually can ‘get something for nothing’ and without having to take it away from someone else? That we no longer live in a world of scarcity, (of anything other than ‘money’, a purely artificial construct), but haven’t a clue how to handle a glut.

In response to that I would say that Trudeau, Obama, and Clinton are all hand puppets of the banksters that finance their campaigns and privileged of power.

Sanders I can’t quiet figure him out yet, but his platform doesn’t add up… progressive in social policy, but in support of the deep state in their war with Russia and Syria? He is likely some kind of Manchurian candidate like Obama was, considering his inconsistencies.

Trump likes to bash the bankers and hedge fund guys, he talks the right talk, but one look at who his friends are and it induces questions. He is a smart guy and knows how to play a crowd. I like to think he is the most genuine of the republicans and can think for himself. Time will tell though.

Putin, he is the classic sit back guy that lets the problem rise to a catastrophe for all to see, so that when he acts he has the full 90% support of the Russian people. Its how he got his way in Chechnya, the NATO expansion plans for Georgia, the separation of Crimea and Donbas in Ukraine, and more recently his intervention in Syria. He lets the first shot be fired every time and then has his way with full Russian public support. Putin faces the bankster class as his unofficial opposition in Russia and they keep his KGB faction in check… he letting the economic situation rise to a boil, but I don’t think he fears them, rather I think he is giving them rope like he has done to all opponents that have crossed his path in the past.

I think if Trump was elected, and Putin and Trump were on the same page, then the bankster class would meet their match. I’m not sure Trump will live long enough to get elected though. Putin has the best economic (BRICS bank and other currency strategies to undermine the anglo-zionist global hold on banking) and geo political advisers in the world today bar none; and I have no doubt Trump would too if elected. Both put results before politics.

As for the notion of ‘get something for nothing’… I don’t believe that is possible. Even if we did have a social credit type of welfare monetary policy, we would all pay for it in the changing value of the monetary inflation even if by a small amount in relation to the growth of the economic base… but even if then I think it would require a renewed expectation of citizenship that would have costs.

I think the world would just be happy to start off with a rules based economic and banking system that isn’t tilted towards globalists 1% banksters at the expense of the lives of everyone else. The shut down of deep state actors and mercenary wars that destroy whole societies through death cult memes running amuck would be a good start. Ideas of sovereign ethical monetary policy won’t see the light of day until that happens.
