Wonder how many forgot they were paying 5-6.00 for 87

They got Rudy and Dustin years ago. I think Rudy tired to fight and got pummeled.

Just bought gas for my old beater in WV a couple hours ago for $2.85. Like a .50 drop in a week down this way. Never checked Diesel. That stuff is just bad, I try to avoid it ...

Prices just went up a little here in NorCal. Paying about $4.79 average. Was down to $4.59 a few weeks ago. May be partially because are brilliant governor is trying to force the refineries to keep a minimum stock. Any time they meddle in the market the prices only go up

He is also trying to tax them for producing harmful chemicals.. Thats why Chevron is talking about no longer doing business here and moving the rest of it to Texas.

Not really, with all the pipe lines they will just pump it to Texas and refine it there. Then they will truck it back to LA and the price will go up accordingly. Probably another Dollar per gallon to stick it to us... We already lead nation in price and fuel tax so what's another dollar...

I am really surprised in light of the new rulings against the EPA that people aren't fighting back.

I am sure that was going on well before the rulings. I just want to see some one challenge them and win.

They both got hit few years back

They need to file for discrimination or harassment to get them off there back.

We literally have companies shutting down and either closing for good or moving out of state due to over regulation here.

Don't get me started on the EV stuff... Not to mention they keep trying to close down all the power plants here. The supreme court already stepped in and blocked them till at least 2029 from being able to do anything in California.
