    It's also an egregious crime for these gas station owners to illegally raise the price of gas. The thieves are wrong and so are these greedy people raising prices unnecessarily.

      You are not a judge. Determining the legal status of anything let along a price increase is nonsensical

      wow you are clueless lol... try running a gas station and you'll understand that they make almost nothing from selling gas. the gas is just to lure people in so they buy food, drinks etc which has the real profit margin.

    What they are doing is absolutely wrong. But, it also speaks of the gap between the haves and have nots in this country. If people made a living wage instead a minimum salary in a part time job, or two, or three, probably we would see less stuff like this. And I am saying "probably." You cannot have those huge multinationals and corporations bringing in billion$ in profits and have people homeless or living way below the poverty level. Just something to think about.
    As a society we tend to point the finger to the poor and applaud those that are rich and smart enough to hire expensive lawyers and accounting firms so that they can avoid paying Federal and state taxes.

      Capitalism isn’t the problem laziness and soft on crime policies are. Guarantee the people stealing gas have a criminal record. There’s also a thing called public transportation. Now ask yourself, what type of person has a car but opts to steal gas? It’s those that commit crimes and choose not to work 2 jobs if 1.

    Mmm I have a hard time blaming them.I still find the bougie bunch more irritating. We get robbed every day by corporate suits. The exploitation of the economy really changed my outlook. Be sure to drain those sports cars dry. Sack their mansions and yachts while you're at it. I'll never tell.
