Maybe there should be special filling stations open only along those
emergency routes that are operated and owned by the oil companies and
only required to be open during emergencies. That takes the burden of
the added expense off of the individual station and franchise owners who
aren't making as much money as the oil companies. They also should be
monitored so they don't gouge people who are just trying to flee from a
disaster. Now, how the oil companies would protect the employees
required to stay, I don't know.
