I think that the period in front of the one was not meant to be there which would make the price 18 cents not .18 cents. Nice try though.

Another question, why does a loaf of bread cost $25, like Beck said it would starting last Jan?

Nice try, but poor comprehension on your part. If you could please try to and, more importantly, understand my post, it had NOTHING about such non-sense. I couldn't care less with such typos.

So they can make a whopping 7 cents/gallon while the federal government makes several times that?

Poor them. Do you happen to have a break up of all the costs that go into $4/gallon?
