It's interesting how things change. Gas wars are good, because the dealers/suppliers get into little sparring matches with each other and bring the prices down to generate sales.
On the other hand, a gas crisis is a real or a made-up shortage which causes panic which, in turn, generates greed, and the long lines to be sure their tanks are full.
It's all a form of manipulation, one way or another.
