The Cancel 9/10 Gas story

Join thousands of drivers across the country who believe it’s time to eliminate the 9/10 gas price fraction once and for all.

The 1932 Fraction: A Legacy of Confusion

In 1932, the government imposed a one-cent tax on gasoline. At the time, oil companies feared that jumping the price from ten cents to eleven would cause customer backlash. Their solution was the 9/10ths fraction—a psychological trick designed to make the increase feel less substantial.

We have been stuck with that silly, historically unnecessary fraction ever since. It exists as an archaic remnant of a century-old marketing tactic. Cancel 9/10 gas is about joining something big to cancel something small. It's time to demand transparency and dump the gimmick forever.
