Really special, gas here in O.C. CA. has already gone up about seventy cents in less than three weeks, the liberals must be thrilled to death.

Yes, CA with its CA government demanded special recipes will likely have an impact.
The combination of the Tesoro’s Martinez refinery and the shutdown of the ExxonMobil Torrance refinery is a significant percentage of CA’s gasoline production.

It doesn’t help with the unions shutting down production elsewhere and I am not convinced the union didn’t have a hand in the Torrance refinery explosion. Also we are way to early for the summer blend gas. These increases started with the unions actions.

I will believe it after I see 1 weeks of worth in the port, verbal agreements mean nothing.

There is that many containers to process.

This is why they do not want the keystone pipeline to go to Alabama... Alabama is ready to build what California is to trash at the orders of stay homosexual/muslim Obama.

It doesnt help with the unions shutting down production elsewhere Shut down production where? All other refineries on strike are still producing gasoline, diesel, etc. No other refineries have been shut down.

This is why they do not want the keystone pipeline to go to Alabama If approved, the Keystone XL pipeline will not go anywhere near Alabama. It will stop in Steele City, Nebraska.

Okay shut down was wrong term, but refer to the last paragraph of the article.
It is difficult to project how long it will take before the strike will start restricting fuel supplies, but prices are already moving up. As companies begin to start hoarding fuel stocks, the 30,000 USW refinery workers will start causing billions of dollars a day in economic damage to the U.S. economyand perishable crops will again rot.
So let's call it union action at other refineries. Happy now?

Gasoline prices started rising recently with the rising crude oil from the bottom.

Increase in stock levels is not a cause of prices to rise.
