Very, very interesting how the inflation seems to be in rear-view mirror in Oklahoma and Texas yet the hyper-inflation gets worse and worse in places like Los Angeles, Seattle, New York City and Chicago.

I wonder which place is more middle-class friendly in regards to the cost of transportation Oklahoma or California?

I think it's wonderful how in the United States that there is so much variety in fuel prices.

Oklahomans and Texans seem to be getting a break from much of this inflation, while places like Seattle and Los Angeles have hyper-inflation and fuel which is well over $5 gallon.

Los Angeles residents paying on average of $5.14 for a gallon are naturally going to drive less because of that expensive fuel, which is good for the environment and also is good for Oklahoma and Texas where many fuel stations charge less than $3 for a gallon.

What a bargain.

I paid about 4.80 for Sunoco 93 octane 100% gasoline.

Not sure about premium with ethanol that I put in my other, newer cars. I just fill up and pay.

Not everyone voted for it.

Also, realize that the head of CA's problem is eyeing the Whitehouse...

I didn't vote for any of those Democrat bastards.

Actually, most of the time all my local and state choices are nothing but Democrats, so I haven't voted in those races for 20 years.

That’s because Texas and Oklahoma are run by good, God fearing, hard working, real Americans; and Los Angeles is run by socialists.

Well take a good look at your gas taxes. And they are about to go up even more.

Californians love their high gas prices; they routinely vote for politicians who push policy that ensures the price of gas in California remains high.
