Actually I should qualify this a bit.

I haven't been in Utah for about 8 years, and they could have changed the law since then.

I can assert with authority that prior to that 8 years, my sister lived there for about 5 (?) years and during that period the price control was in effect.

I can also assert with authority that there were no lines nor rationing at that time. That the gas station experience was pretty much the same as in other states. Only difference at the consumer end was that there was no reason to shop for lower prices. So you could just go to any station you wanted to.

Note that I am not advocating price controls. Only pointing out that Phil is full of it.
