At a price of $3.00 per gallon, the oil company that explored, found,
drilled, pumped, transported, refined, built distribution centers (gas
stations), transported to distribution centers and finally pumped into
our tanks makes 10 to 20 cents per gallon on gasoline.

The US Government makes 18 cents per gallon and individual states make
on average another 19 cents per gallon.

In the 1970s, the US government 'solved' the gasoline price problem.
We could only buy gas on odd or even days (based on license plate
numbers) when we could find a station that actually had gas to sell.

I wouldn't look to government as the solution to this non-problem.
