The price of petrol and diesel increases and everyone is losing, including the operators of the distributors. Starting to think and concrete ways to save.
What we are going through is undoubtedly one of the most extraordinary and difficult moments for theworld economy. The demonstration walks on the track of speculation and results in the fact that, despite the quantity of oil and gas is always the same, the price rises more and more due to a phase dictated by social and political instability. One of the most effective thermometers can be read in petrol station, now besieged by shock prices and fear of running out of fuel. A paradox that scares the Italians who are forced to recharge their cars every day to go to work or to maintain a normal life and who, therefore, pay with their wallet the decrease in raw materials and the war between Russia and Ukraine, as also happens for other primary goods such as bread.
Petrol prices, what you need to know
Although many believe that the owners or operators of petrol stations are the ones who make money, the truth lies elsewhere. As mentioned a few days ago by the Figisc Confcommercio of Cesenathe operators earn 3.5 cents (gross) for every liter of gasoline or diesel sold and therefore that ends up in the cars of consumers. And therefore, no particular changes for them since prices have skyrocketed and no gain has been made to the managers who, on the contrary, risk closing and losing employment rates.
Expensive fuel prices, gas pump operators protest
The Government chaired by Mario Draghi in these hours he is working to adopt buffer measures and revitalize the behavior. The trade unions of the managers are asking for immediate action, perhaps going to touch the many famous and coveted excise duties. But interventions can also relate VAT.
The time so it passes but the managers for now are thinking of a way to stem the very high costs: da Monday the lights of the systems will be off, in mode self-service in the night. But it is not excluded that other actions will be taken to protect the jobs of petrol stations which, at present, are in danger of becoming impoverished.
