I wish I had a tanker! Venezuela and gas prices.

[T. A. Gardner]

Because of the insane inflation of the Bolivar in Venezuela, you can currently purchase roughly 925,000 gallons of gasoline for a dollar ($1) there! Inflation is approaching 1,000,000% That means for pocket change I could theoretically fill a super tanker...

With gasoline and make an absolute killing selling it somewhere that the government and country isn't run by an insane semi-literate ex-bus driver who is now a Socialist dictator.

Too late - the fuel subsidies have just been scrapped because people have been buying vast amounts and smuggling it out of the country!

Venezuela has turned into a real $h!+hole now...

Surprised they weren't ought out and renamed. That's how it works here. People still need gas from the local stations.

Out here in what AJ refers to as the "backwater" where I am, we are seeing a resurgence of Sinclair fuels. They used to be fairly common in parts of Colorado, then kind of faded away for a while and are now back and seem to be doing good business.
