First, this wasn’t a total disruption like in 1973, there are many more sources of oil now besides the Persian Gulf, but the shortages in 1973 were exacerbated by price controls (ie a ban on so-called “price gouging”). So that instead of charging more money, gas stations sold gas for below market and ran out of fuel. |
