“Why should Trump intervene to “ save” them when all their problems are self inflicted?”
Because this does NOT affect just Ca. This creates a huge unnecessary economic hardship on both Nevada and Arizona. We get pretty much all of our fuel from these particular refineries. So Nv and Az is going to suffer also and they should not. This is a serious Interstate Commerce issue. Because it involves these other states and Military Bases it is actually a National Security issue.
Good points.
Considering the industrial manufacturing construction down in tge valley, and the effect it will have on LV, i suspect this could get interesting real quick.
Money talks and bullshit walks.
If AZ, NV had elected officials with guts, theyd go through the Trump administration and work with Mexico to get oil up here, refine it and forget CA altogether.
But, that requires kickbacks, payoffs and bribes. And at the present, that entails the cartels.
