In the next state over from me, the gas price is $0.50 lower. Because our taxes are Sky High.
No newscum and rats in the legislative body’s could care less
Simple question for the “Blame it on the Oil Companies” crowd: Why only California? California is 10% of the US population, why only gouge California? Why not Texas, the second most populous state? Or Florida, the third?
“When you shut down refinery operations, you limit the resilience of the supply chain.”
The food chain relies greatly on the production of fossil fuel AND LUBRICANTS by which, we perform agricultural processing.
“Without fossil fuels,” the problems of lubricating the machinery all along the process lines, increase. If we are not to use natural gas and oil, we must use chemical processes to produce the high quality lubricants from “green” crops (we are given to understand under Woke Regulations).
The cost of lubrication will climb. Our dependence upon using lubricants produced from overseas, will climb. Our food production will be at the mercy of ships at sea, for which we have few naval resources to defend.
Especially for all the fossil fuel still needed for agricultural processing DESPITE the genius of California “science.”
And we are going to have to begin escorting ships to and fro.
While Mexico will continue to use fossil fuel for agriculture and take over the Agricultural GDP of California.

I have family in California. Whenever I drove I’d fill up on the Arizona side before entering the state. Big difference in prices between the two states.
Absolute fact. We live in a border state and our prices are $1.50 less on fuel than Ca and both sides of the river are being supplied from the same pipeline rack and bulk companies.
Spot on and for the bonus round the state uses fuel taxes not for road repairs so much but for parks anybody who drives on the I5 can nod to that.
The state uses tax money in the take shake and shuffle it out gig.
