Help me to understand this...first of all, the elections are 8 months away so we really aren't "around election time" and I don't understand what it is that would make the prices go down. Do the elections make the refining process cheaper? Do foreign oil companies predicate their price on our election cycle? Do US companies sacrifice profits? If so why? Do the pharmacuetical companies lower their prices around election time? What about insurance companies? Do cars get cheaper as well?
I'm sorry, I just don't get the logic here.
