Why are wall street ers mading extra money on the fuel I buy at say a Shell station, that was from a Shell owned well and refinery????

Unfortunately - it isn't just Wall Street as many, if not most are off shore speculators, with London, Hong Kong and other foreign commodity markets doing much of the price fixing/gouging.
