California drivers could soon face gas prices soaring to $8.43 per gallon, a staggering 75% increase from current levels. The looming crisis stems from the shutdown of two major in-state refineries, which together account for 20% of California’s gasoline production.

The Phillips 66 refinery in Los Angeles is set to close by the end of 2025, followed by the Valero refinery in Benicia, which will halt operations in April 2026. These closures will create a gasoline deficit ranging from 6.6 million to 13.1 million gallons per day, according to an analysis by USC Professor Michael Mische. The impact will extend beyond fuel prices, affecting supply chains, air travel, food delivery, agriculture, manufacturing, and healthcare.

Go back and read my post. I stated three types of people: 1) those who understand binary, 2) those who don't, and 3) those who are so dumb they think that "nonbinary" is a thing.

That's my modern take on the old IT joke that there are "10 types of people" (in decimal that's 2 types of people), but poking fun at the transgender lobby being the really dumb ones they're like a third category (3 in decimal = 11 in binary).

California drove Exon out years ago over taxes wonder if ARCO will be the last one standing and how much stock they have in it or will own it outright.
