They have ignored it for several years now. The whining always gets loud
around Memorial Day (late May) at the peak of the driving season. When
demand goes down and prices fall somewhat, the whining decreases and the
public tends to forget about the pain involved in the $100 fillups. The
public seems to have a very short attention span.
