Come on whitey, you’re a business school grad. It’s not that it causes a decrease in supply, its that it causes an increase in demand. Also, there are no alternatives to using gasoline. None. If there were an alternative, that would allow gas prices to stay lower in order the stay in competition. When you are a monopoly, supply and demand changes in that single area are going to cause HUGE fluctuations in the price.
