Question: Should the government  investigate oil company price gouging? 

Answer: Yes the government should, but if they wanted to they would have done so already. The fact of the matter is that American politicians are for sale and unless you have white envelopes stuffed with cash you problems don't really matter much. The oil companies have plenty so get ready for more to come. But dont blame people buying gas guzzling vehicles. These prices rise completely independent of American demand even though its used as a primary excuse.
