This may be a stupid question, but why is diesel so dang expensive right now? At first I thought refining costs, but it used to be cheaper than unleaded! What happened?

Welcome to the real world of getting screwed!

Diesel is from the bottom of the barrel and the cheepest to refine!

But, it is needed, so guesss what?????

A friend said his dad was in the oil business and if it wasnt for diesel, they would have just pourd it out into the ground.

But since it used to be cheaper and peeps started buying Diesel and we get deliverys it of course goes up!!!

We pay for it one way or the other!
