RE: Fuel Issues & Prices - Post 'Em Here!
I suspect your reasoning is true. I have watched this differential between gas prices of the states compared to California increase over the last several years. This is the most extreme I have ever seen it. We are close to Hawaii prices (8 cents less than them today).
cekkk:
Unfortunately the illustrious CARB (California Air Resources Board) is appointed and not voted on. Most people in Sacramento think they are wonderful! They did a lot of good in the 70's and 80's which cleaned up the air and were a model for the country, but like most government agencies they are too big and live in another world from ordinary Americans. They have been quoted as saying that they want gas prices to go high to force people to change. They have figured out that price is the only thing that will make people change their ways and make other energy alternatives more economically attractive. This is not my opinion of CARB, they readily state this!
I already planned my summer vacation to Utah and Arizona this summer and will enjoy their prices while I am there!:C
The scary thing for the rest of the country is that the way Californie goes is the way the rest of the country usually goes.

California's average price is $4.20 American today for Regular. What bothers me more is not just the price going up which is bad enough, but why Californian's are paying nearly .60 cents more than our Arizonian neighbors and a $Dollar$ per gallon more than Utah.
I understand the good weather tax and our crazy laws here in Californie but the price differential is bad for California citizens and I am upset!
