San Francisco Bay Area Gas Station Nears $8 Per Gallon

A San Francisco Bay Area gas station is charging nearly $8 per gallon ahead of Memorial Day weekend as California’s average price continues to trend upward, ABC’s KABC-TV 7 reported on Tuesday.

The Chevron station in Menlo Park, California, was pictured offering regular gasoline to customers at a price of $7.25 per gallon, with its higher-octane gasoline hitting $7.75 per gallon.

Gas prices are spiking across the country at shocking rates. In California alone, gasoline has gone up almost $2 per gallon over the last year. That number over the same period nationwide is $1.61, according to The Daily Wire.

The AAA national average of gas prices sat at $4.598 per gallon as of Monday, with California above an average of $6 per gallon – by far the highest in the country.

During a Monday press conference in Japan, President Joe Biden oddly referred to the rise in gas prices as “an incredible transition” away from fossil fuels, the New York Post reported.

“[When] it comes to the gas prices, we’re going through an incredible transition that is taking place that, God willing, when it’s over, we’ll be stronger and the world will be stronger and less reliant on fossil fuels when this is over,” Biden said after meeting with Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida.

If it's 'incredible' why didn't Biden and his thugs run on the idea?

Transitory means not permanent.

Transition on the other hand means to change to something different. It’s like mutilating your private parts to change your sex.

The Bay Area Elite love it. When you are make a million bucks a year, $8 per gallon gas a non issue. What is a big issue is the lower traffic and better availability of everything from parking spaces to great seats at events because the little people cant afford to drive and high gas prices are cutting into discretion spending across the board. The best of being rich is having things others don't. Too many average people have everything the rich do. Getting richer can't fix that - making average people poorer can fix that. It's all about managed disparity

Will $8.00 per gallon be enough to wise up the sheeple?

I'm guessing it won't.

"I’m old enough to remember when gas was $5 a gallon."

I remember routinely seeing gasoline at $0.23 and during gas wars at $0.19 a gallon.
Coca Cola was $0.05 each(I'm 78 years old)
