One convenience store in Houston reportedly charged $20 for a gallon of gas, $8.50 for a bottle of water and $99 for a case of water, according to the Texas Attorney General's office.

The state has received 684 complaints in all, according to Kayleigh Lovvorn, a spokeswoman for the office. The agency has started looking into nine cases so far but expects more.
I distinctly recall people on here saying that price gouging is an acceptable part of Capitalism.

Welp, those of you in Texas can now rest assured that Libertarianism is alive and well. When you can't get gasoline or water because they're charging an arm and a leg for it, I better not hear that one of you reported them to the government.

Remember, you fucking asked for this!
