MOST WON'T CARE...........
I dont know about Maine or Penn. but i find it funny that very liberal states NY,Conn and Mass . feel the pain of high heating oil prices ,as they should ,since those states vote very liberal people into state and national offices ,they deserve to pay for their choices
the "liberal parts of NY ain't the parts using heating oil. those are the deep red upstate parts..the smal family farms and apple orchards etc.
Fact remains, the vast majority of the country doesn't GAF abut heating oil, and many have never even HEARD of it.
I heat my house in Colorado with NG and the highest bill I have ever had during the coldest winter was $65. (point being, most ppl in flyover states don't give a chit about heating oil costs.)
