Mamo is a total creep.


How so?


Market manipulation

Abuse of employees

Illegally armed security people

Pay practices

Shody self-service equipment (air fill hoses at his gas stations)

Filthy bathrooms

My recollection of the weirdly expensive gas station near the Kennedy center is that gas stations are a cabal and the weird prices resulted from some sort of longstanding dispute between an owner and a distributor or something so this is probably that.

This is what happens when you have stupid regulations that cause odd and inefficient business behavior.

I have always wondered this about the Exxon in Bethesda at Old Georgetown and Auburn Ave. It is always a dollar more than any other nearby gas station.

How does the Exxon station sustain this differential? It is consistently this way.


That Exxon is well known for always being unreasonably expensive. When I see people pumping gas there, I always assume they are not very bright. There are two gas stations a block down wich are usually a dollar cheaper.

Money laundering operation. They don't care what gas costs, the higher the price the better.
