Charging $20/gal of gas is not a market reaction, it's a gouge.
There is no such thing as gouging, only the invisible hand. The next guy can charge $10 and the $20 guy will sit there on his stock. Let the market work.

Again, other than the overblown stories of gas shortages, what did we run out of in Houston over a 3-4 day period? I'll tell you of one shortage. Bread. You can only buy 2 loaves/trip right now but shipments are moving in today since the roads opened yesterday. Houstonians survived without gouging over a 4 day period. Whew! I'm done with this stupidity.
