Why are natural Gas prices so expensive?

Natural Gas is a commodity and as such it is bought and sold by speculators. Gas is purchased by brokers who in turn sell the gas to Natural Gas companies. They thake a profit first then the gas companies take a profit. there is nothing public about natural gas companies. They are private, for profit companies that sell natural gas to consumers like you and me. They are regulated by a commissions of people they approve of so they raise prices at will. It should be noted that natural gas is extreamly abundant in the United States and easy to extract. Gas companies have set up a network of pipe lines and distribution outlets many of which are decades old. Many of the local and civic natural gas companies were bought out years ago and now are owned by private investors. Some of the companies offer non preferred stock and will yield some dividends but nothing closely resembling the enormous profits they make on the backs of their customers. There is no competition in this market place. That is why natural gas prices are high.
