Gas retailers receive a fraction of the price listed on the sign–their net profit per gallon is around $0.03-$0.14 after factoring in costs like labor, utilities, insurance, and credit card transaction fees. This puts the net profit margin of a gas station at less than 2 percent.

Consumers have no idea how much retail prices are driven up by exorbitantly high swipe fees. Cash paying customers are paying the price for this too! It's a behind the scenes absurdity that nobody thinks or knows about, but amounts to BILLIONS of dollars per year. – at Dickinson, ND

Thanks. I think you're a sock puppet, but I'll answer. The results are in. The departing president sent lawyers to dozens of courts. They've given no credible evidence. In court, where they can't lie, they admit they don't even allege fraud. They only lie to you. You let them.

This is a picture of voter suppression. Why do Americans have to wait in lines this long? This is the line in Suwannee Georgia today to vote.
