State officials investigate gas price gouging



State officials are beginning to investigate complaints of price gouging at numerous gas stations across Georgia. This comes in the wake of Hurricane Ike’s trek through the Gulf and Texas over the weekend.

Through late this morning, the Governor’s Office of Consumer Affairs says they had received 80 complaints of unreasonable spikes in prices since 7pm Friday. The calls have come in from all parts of the state, and about different companies’ stations.

Early Friday night, the Governor issued an executive order against price gouging. Its aim is to make sure the prices people are paying are in-line with what retailers pay. Over the weekend some drivers around the state saw spikes of over $5.00 a gallon at certain stations, along with some stations running out of gas.

Should be good for Saturday Night Live or Jay Leno or, or, or
After motorists are raped of Billions, and long drawn out litigation, the "offenders" will be fined a few million and turn to raping the users of heating oil.
The only way to get them to repent and repay is to let them work it off with SHERIFF JOE ARPAIO.
