Severin Borenstein, a professor of business and public policy at the University of California at Berkeley… The state's low carbon fuels standard, for example, adds $0.08 to every gallon of gas. California gas taxes add another $0.17. But Borenstein's data shows that, all told, California-specific taxes and regulations only account for around $0.83.


Borenstein is either ignorant or a liar or both.
