Poll Results: Oil and Gas Company Price Manipulation
posted in Other |
According to a recent poll on Daily Fuel Economy Tip, nearly 80% of people believe that oil and gasoline companies have manipulated the supply of gas in order to cause prices to shoot through the roof. When asked, “Do you believe oil and gasoline companies have manipulated the supply of gas to cause prices to increase?” 79% of respondents stated yes; 16% stated no; and 5% stated that they were unsure. Flaws / Potential Bias: You couldn’t tell how many people were actually polled here, and the website appears written in anti-government fashion - not really an accurate sample of a realistic US population. Also this poll makes no mention of OPEC, one of the major reasons oil / gas prices shift up and down.
