The CA refinery regulations are probably so thick that they would cause a major earthquake if placed on any of those oil wells.

“$3.19 ga in Ohio, it was $1.89 under Trump”

...about the same in VA but our newly elected all red executive branch says they’ll eliminate the state tax for gas.

I used to live there many many years ago...back when Orange County still had miles and miles of orange groves.

Right. It was the rain.

Every year they cook up some bs story like that to shut down the refinery’s in Benicia.

The price started rocketing up as soon as Brandon killed the pipeline and fracking operations.

The oil masters are leveraging that with their more time honored scams to squeeze a pretty penny out.

It’s win-win for them:

- They make tons of $$$
- Brandon takes the blame

Can’t do any better.

Aweeee isn’t that too bad.... nope glad to see it hit them and hit them hard. Although the Hollywood elite don’t feel the pinch, it’s the average Joe living outside the land of Oz that suffer.

Just wait until Xiden ships the last of our reserve barrels to China and see what the cost is across the US.

One reason for the increase, AAA said, is the state’s reduced refinery production capacity due to heavy rainstorms in northern California which then trickled down the supply chain, impacting southern California similar to what happened in Louisiana during Hurricane Ida last August.

Baloney.

It’s the state government that is responsible for the cost of living there. Nothing else.

California has more ‘homeless’ too - and wider wage disparities, and massive crime and it’s a hellhole.

When the country peacefully divides California can be their capital city... it would be soooooooo fitting.

Nearly every European Union country has had $3 liter plus petrol for years on top of 20%+ VAT taxes in addition to yearly or monthly Vignette taxes and country specific Vignette taxes when you cross in to a new country to use their roads. So Europe does just fine with $9 plus per gallon petrol and 20+% VAT taxes. Its not the end of the world stop hyperventilating. Europe has plenty of wealthy people as does China another country with high taxes and petrol prices. China has more millionaires is American dollars than does America and they pay out the nose in taxes. Successful people find a way, poor’s will be poors it’s not the system that fails them it is themselves.
