Not really... any of us. We are like UPS... so we only benifit if they ship more product. Our rates of transport per bbrl doesn't increase like the gas prices. The price of oil or supply doesn't really affect our prices... so it doesn't affect us. Much like many others surrounding the oil industry. It isn't the entire industry it is the select few owners and stock holders of the big oil companies!!! <insert flip off smilie>

That last part is my worry if I do worry about such things.

And you're partially right. The distributors, which are middle men that haul the gas to the gas staions, are responsible for a huge portian of the gas hikes.
