Gas prices ; true or false?

Question

I once heard that if no one bought gas for a day or 2, that the prices would fall....i think we should start a cut on gas prices! Anyways Is this true?

Answer 1

MEBBY ! but iff the truck drivers were to shut down for a few days , it would make a big differance too k your friendly neibour . TOM . from the north american states .

Answer 2

False.

However, think of this:  If everyone bought their gas from one retailer for the next week ...and nobody else...then determine next week's retailer by who had the lowest price during the previous week over all stations, then there might be a lowering of prices.  However this would be hard to control and enforce, but it might work.

On the other hand, if we were to reduce the amount of taxes on a gallon of gas, the price would definitely fall.  Pigs will fly and h**l will freeze when that happens, but it would definitely lower the cost of a gallon of gas.

Building new refineries and allowing oil exploration in Alaska and off the coast of Florida would also help lower prices as well.

Answer 3

False.  What do you think will happen after those two days?   There'd be a rush on buying gas. People would only be delaying buying gas by a day or two.  Now if everyone cut back on the amount of driving then it could be possible that gas prices might drop slightly due to reduced demand.

Answer 4

I think that if everyone goes to work using  the same vehicle instead of 2 or 3, you will save a lot of gas.

On Vacations try to do less traveling, unless the family member(s) live out of town or state.  Then gas prices may be going down.

Here it is $3.50 a gallon.  And I think that is a bunch of bull ****.

I'll be glad when they will come out with those electronic cars and trucks.

Answer 5

False.

It's supply and demand. Gas prices will lower for about a week (if at all) and then, when demand is up prices will go up.

Answer 6

false
