Gas Prices Fixing??? Maybe, yes?!?!

I realized something yesterday. You know how oil companies and politicians say that oil prices aren't being fixed? Yeah, BS. I would like to know why gas prices just HAPPENED to go up just before the 4th of July holiday. I don't think it is a coincidence that gas prices went up from $2.59 to $2.80...I think you would agree. Personally, oil is a business, and they are using the high demand to make themselves more profit! Grrr. I filled up yesterday at $2.84...RIDICULOUS! And that was for Regular Unleaded Gas. So, let that sit with you when you fill up the tank and listen to oil companies and politicians say that oil prices aren't fixed...hmmm. And also when politicians say that that subject will be investigated...yeah, that didn't happen the last 2 or so times they said an investigation was going on to see if oil prices were being fixed. Maybe they should actually do an investigation?!?! I agree. However, the whole fact that there is too much demand for the amount of supply is also causing this, which is no good. As long as this trend continues, gas prices will continue to be high. That sucks.
