Just curious, why do you think that chart was relatively level unitl they came along.

I don't know why the chart is flat but I doubt the jump in prices is due to collusion.

With steadily increasing demane for oil, thanks in part to China's industrialization, you'd think the price of gas would follow. I have read where our refining capacity is so low that we import gasoline from other countries.
