Part of the reason for higher gas prices in CA is the different formulations required in different areas of the state.

Dear middle school mentality Newsom. Did you know that all taxes and fees on a gallon of gas add up to $1.19 a gallon in California? If you don’t know, then it figures. If you do know, then it figures.

‘’plus 9.7 billion a year on gas taxes’’

_—————-

I have been looking for that figure, so Thanks

I have been trying to figure the bite electric vehicles will take out of State coffers and a ballpark figure of the tax one will eventually pay just to charge them or drive

My point being, these electric vehicles are going to seem like a deal at first

You like that one, how about the “2017 fraught battle” to jack the tax sky high? They did it. A repeal went on the ballot, and they lied like remorseless mother so and sos in the anti-repeal ads. “Fraught”

I heard a politician one say. There are so many extra cars on the road we need to raise the gas tax to pay for the road damage. I asked him —If there are so many extra cars on the road aren’t you collecting a lot more tax on the gas they are burning now? Was given a blank stare for an answer.

Newsom will make it so all people have to do is bring their
shopping basket by any gas station, and register for a gas
stimulus check.

And some of those formulas are unique to California

Santa Cruz propaganda.
Probably the most liberal city on the West Coast.
We tried to build a design team in Santa Cruz.
No one we hired ever showed up for work for even a 40hr work week.

My brother worked for Shell Chemical in the Bay Area decades ago.
When CA mandated a special formulation for its gas, Shell was thrilled!
They were the only refinery on the West Coast who could produce it.
It wasn’t any cleaner but it WAS much more expensive.
Consumers were handed the bill.
