How the hell do liberals think gasoline is processed? Oh yeah - its out of thin air. We don need no stinkin' refinery in Richmond!

I did note that one the pro-Chevron protester shown was also black, btw, and he was trying to point out to what appeared to be a bearded white liberal male and a droopy white liberal female that Chevron=jobs for Richmond.

The “people” of California are allowing their state to be legislated out of existence.

After all of the businesses and working folks move out who will be left to pay the taxes that support this marxist utopia?

One small problem with Chevron leaving Richmond. Chevron would have to pay billions (if not tens of billions) to clean up the site they left behind.

I wonder if the city of Richmond knows that.

Yeah. I bet they do.

You took the words right out of my mouth!

Where’s Ellis Wyatt when you need him?

“I am leaving it as I found it. Take it. It’s yours.”

[TYVets]

When did Richmond become yankee country?

[dennisw]

We are soooooooo.... screwed!

[RightWhale]

It appears the party is over. Well, at least we have each other. LOL

Believe it or not he’s on our side

[Paperdoll]

LOL! Don’t most mayors look like loons?

[xzins]

They can’t move. New refineries can’t be built.

It would have to be an upgrade to a different refinery.

I live about 45 miles southwest of Cleveland.Dennis Kosinich was/is the Gold Standard for loons that were mayor.I even remember when Ralph Perk set his own hair on fire with a cutting torch.Another loony Cleveland mayor.

“The provisions would have required Chevron to give a total of $1 million a year to the city’s construction training program, summer youth employment and an industrial arts training academy; create an urban forest in the city”

That is extortion and blackmail on the part of the local Govt.

If anyone but the Govt was doing it, it would be a felony.
