I would like to know why fuel oil is as low as $3.169 down in southern Maine and as high as $4.099 in eastern Maine. The Web site www.maineoil.com shows oil prices in Maine. Our governor and representatives need to look at this and actually do something.

I can understand a difference in price of 5-10 cents, but this is ridiculous. I guess there are not enough votes in Washington County to count, so we are out of sight and out of mind. We are one of the poorest counties in Maine and we pay more for fuel oil, gasoline, propane and probably food.

I am starting to believe that the state should regulate fuel and gas prices. There is no reason why there should be such a difference in oil and gas prices throughout the state.
