Cycle of Inflation

So I'm reading TBogg and his first experience with paying $40 at the pump and a thought hits me.

Did you know that credit card companies don't allow gas stations to charge more than $50 at the pump. Well, at least at one station that I go to. They tell me that the credit card companies don't allow $50+ purchases at any gas stations.

So! If the credit card companies charge PER transaction, and if they don't allow more than $50+ on the credit card, that means in order to fill up, you SUV drivers have to do 2 transactions. The gas stations don't want to eat this cost, SO GUESS WHO EATS THE COST?

Yet ANOTHER reason to hate SUV drivers.
