Blame the oil oligopoly. I have a personal belief that the oil companies figured out a few years ago that there are far fewer folks to femaledog about diesel so they jacked the prices up on diesel and kept the difference there using low sulfur etc as a maristroika (Grand deception). Works for most big consuming businesses like trucking companies, utilities etc, as they "surcharge" based upon the weekly fuel pricing indexes or at minimum "pass through" these costs. This "surcharge" is greater than the actual cost/change in cost in diesel so they benefit from the rise in cost to an extent. The airlines should have had a fuel price index surcharge on tickets for a long time.... they don't and it kills them. But it sucks to be an individual consumer of Diesel.
