[quote=Anonymous]IIRC, the gas stations are leased by individuals and there's a dispute between the person who owns them and supplies the gas and the people who are leasing them to provide repair and other services. One version of the story is that the owner wants to end the leases so he is charging high rates for the gas so customers avoid the stations and the leaseholders are forced out because they aren't doing well financially. Another version has the leaseholders able to set the prices for the gas, but forced to give the owner a share of the gas profits, so they charge high prices in hopes people don't purchase gas there, lowering amount the owner gets.
