Story breakdown: while you are paying record prices for fuel, oil comapnies are growing fatter with record profits.
So what can you do?
Click on over to MoveOn.org Political Action:
Stop Price Gouging, fill in a couple of blanks and let your government know what you want done.
Enough is enough!
A bill in the House would make gasoline price gouging a federal crime, and it could pass this week!
Can you help be sure it does?
What do you have to lose?
Thanks to Richard for the head's up.

I'm not sure that taxing "excess profits" or establishing price controls is the way to go, it can lead down a dangerous road. At the same time, high prices lead people to conserve, so they are not necessarily bad.
I'd definitely support taking away all subsidies from oil companies, though.
