The Florida Attorney General and the Agriculture Commissioner are giving oil companies seven days to comply with their subpoenas. The AG’s office is requesting information from four gas companies. The Commissioner of Agriculture subpoenaed 16 companies. More than 2,000 complaints of gas price gouging have been reported to the state’s two hotlines. Governor Charlie Crist is outraged at the stories he’s hearing about gas price gouging.

“We are in a situation where people’s lives are at risk in Texas because of Hurricane Ike and some people are so damn greedy that they want to take financial advantage of that. It’s outrageous, especially after you see what’s going on on Wall Street. Enough is enough and we’re not going to take it anymore,” Crist said.

If it’s determined that some stations raised prices illegally, they would face a 25,000 dollar fine for every day they ripped off their customers.
