Asinine!

There is a service station In Merrill, Wisconsin that has been giving discounts on gas to senior citizens and anyone who supports youth sports. The station owner has been ordered by the state to raise its prices on gas or risk being sued by the state. The state department of Agriculture,Trade and consumer protection says the discounts violate Wisconsin's Unfair sales act which says the station must sell its gas at 9.2 percent more than the wholesale price.

I thought the government had nothing to do with the price of gas. Its all supposed to simple economics, supply and demand right? Now I am not so sure. Of course, I am sure there is much our government does not tell us.

So, if you are to fear anything fear the Imperial Federal Government.
