| Time to throw the biggest gas HOAX out in the Open California ! |
Well we are approaching [ have approached] the 5 dollar mark in gas prices in some parts of (0)>>California. Certainly California has created a gasoline island by its anti-pollution rules. I don’t question that. When it comes to fuel , Californians are overtaxed and suckered into raising gas taxes. We all have been told that it's (1.1)>>because of supply and demand issues , Oil company executives admit the supply shortages to which they frequently expose California are highly profitable.Normally, the price differential between California and the U.S. would return to around 30-40 cents per gallon. But not likely anymore . (1.2)>>This BIGGEST LIE we are told is that there is a "special blend" of gas that is a Summer blend and a Winter blend . I believe its BULLSHIT! Sorry for the bad language , the cuss word , but I have not heard any Consumer Watchdog group jumping to (1.3)>>REALLY INVESTIGATE if there has been any changes of gasoline formula during the seasons to verify that there is a defence between the gas formula's to justify the high gas prices . California raised GAS TAXES thanks to Gov. Brown without the vote of Californians (2)>>TO REPEAT WHAT I SAID he added a tax to an already existing tax on fuel . Outside factors also play their part in our gas scams , perhaps OPEC like (2.2)>>the oil sanctions against Iran which oil prices jumped 28 % in a matter of hours , but nothing explains why crazy prices for gasoline out here in California, they’re nearing $5. To be sure, those prices are outliers, economists say, and California is the country’s most expensive gasoline market, due to taxes, other costs, and environmental regulations.Also there is a shortage of new refineries, no refineries have been built in CA for five decades, which is curious as I was saying for such a large state that needs to meet the supply and demand with the different blends . This altogether furthers the notion that some kind of hoax is going on a state (3)>>level bureaucracy . Experts predict prices won’t be coming down anytime soon. California’s gas tax goes up again effective July 1.
NOTES AND COMMENTS:
(0)>>California. A bit of history of California gas tax, was: 27.8 cents/gallon 11/1/2017: 39.8 cents/gallon 7/1/2019: 47.3 cents/gallon, 1/1/2020: annual increases based on the inflation rate California diesel tax, was: 10.19% sales tax, plus 16 cents/gallon 11/1/2017: 14.19% sales tax, plus 36 cents/gallon, 1/1/2020: annual increases based on the inflation rate. (1.1)>>because of supply and demand issues. It is embarassing to watch an oil company executive on television try to explain the reasons for a spike in gas prices. It reminds me of the guys outside of the subway entrances in New York City playing "three card Monte" asking the spectators "where is the queen?". Just a total grift on the driving public is all. They have no shame and the real joke is that they think this is all a plausible explanation and we believe them. So sad. Isn't it amazing how often these outages seem to happen and how gas prices spike immediately, before the effect of shortages can actually occur? Oil company and tobacco company execs are professional liars. Don’t be embarrassed for them. They know they are lying and are happy to make people think they have no alternatives to gasoline. AND AS mysterious refinery outages right on time as they seem to be every year. Just as scheduled. (1.2)>>This BIGGEST LIE . What the crock is this? Every year we always here the same thing. Prepare for high prices at the pump for the summer season. This usually extends well into August citing late summer vacation travel as the culprit. But lookie here a sudden reversal calling the season immediately after July 4. (1.3)>>REALLY INVESTIGATE. I have a bold theory here , I don't believe that WE are being sold two different types of fuel.First place there are not enough fuel refineries in the state to switch between blends of gas each season for each statewide gasoline station [ Exxon , Arco, Union76 and Shell to name a few] so this seasonal blend of fuel is vary slow to transport. Another observation is that a local gas station let say its May , its time to switch to the summer blend of gas still has its station tanks filled with a winter blend of gas , EVEN through its summer that station gouges its price per gallon , while still selling to the California Consumer a winter blend of gas while its SUPPOSED to be selling a summer blend . (2)>>TO REPEAT WHAT I SAID. What happened? I thought if we approve taxes that they will only take what they need? Well, at least the roads and schools will get better like the last tax hike. I mean, look at them now! Only potholes that are 1 foot deep, and the kids can almost read now.The high price of fuel is due to California’s taxes on gas and diesel. The price of crude has gone up in the past few months driving the price of gas slightly. It drives me crazy when everyone blames the refineries for the price of gas. Look up how much the feds and the state, and county, are taxing gasoline. Its all available online. Fuel prices are pretty consistent across the country. It all comes down taxes in California its state sponsored gouging of gas to funnel money into other dark projects , not fixing roads !(2.2)>>the oil sanctions against Iran. Iran is a massive player in the oil market. It’s the world’s fourth largest producer of oil, pumping five million barrels a day or about 5.4% of global supply, according to data compiled by oil giant BP BP, -0.36% Cutting off some or all of that would have an out-sized effect on prices because the markets are so finely balanced between supply and demand, say economists. (3)>>level bureaucracy . Here's something Newsom could do for CA citizens instead of jetting down to El Salvador for a meet and greet with the future democratic voters, how about finding out why these refineries schedule their maintenance at the same time? They can't make a phone call to each other and come up with a plan to stagger the shutdowns so CA citizens can have a stable supply of gasoline? Wow, how many more times will big oil get away with scam before someone who is in power (Gavin) does something about it?
