Surplus. Uh-huh.

If there's such a surplus then why are prices going up-up-up?

Natural gas prices at the wholesale levels are going down. If your
supplier is raising the price that is another problem.

We're supposed to be on the "cheaper" winter blend right now and prices are creeping back to $4 a gallon.

That is gasoline, electric plants don't use gasoline.

Frankly I'd rather pay the Chinese for solar panels than the greedy old white men manipulating the gas prices.

So you prefer greedy old chinese people and their US partners *... OK

Not to mention all the govt borrowed and printed money that
went down rat holes like Solyndra. *How much nat gas could
you buy with $500mil?

A fixed amount. There is no limit on sunshine.
