They have added taxes to fight global warming etc. I guess making it too expensive to drive does lower emissions.
Meanwhile, back in the real world, global emissions are growing, not declining and global TWh of energy consumption is growing, not declining... despite all of the taxes and renewables to Cool The Earth.
10/4/2022 - CALIFORNIA average for a gallon of regular: $6.41 ~ A New Record!! - Yay!
~ Thx Greenie Left!
Meanwhile, back in the sane world,
TEXAS: $3.09
back in hurricane ravaged Florida: $3.18.
Buy hey, Joe seems to think that "Gas Station Owners" are to blame, while threatening price gougers in Florida...
Any couple earning 100k-150k a year aren't going to make it in Cal. Not even close. 500k gets you a home in gang-banger central. Now, 6.40 a gallon of gas?
Gas in CA has always been expensive. I road tripped there about 15 years ago and IIRC gas was about double compared to Texas. They’ve always used an expensive gas blend particular to California, because of pollution. Speaking of— LA and the Central Valley were ultra polluted and dirty, and there quite a few trannies and homeless in SF. San Diego climate was awesome but it was expensive as hell. Hmm— sounds like not much has changed. Maybe time to visit again, and I’ll bring a big wad of cash like I had to do 15 years ago. Pay to play, or else stay home.
I was watching Die Hard (1988) the other day and there's a scene where a gas station in the background has gas listed at $.74/gallon (in LA).

Yes back in the real world.....As long as China and India continue to build coal plants don't expect any cooling of the planet any time soon.
The time for Nuclear is almost gone but its the only way to combat global warning. People in Germany are kicking themselves for closing down their Nuclear power plants and depending on Russia for gas and oil.
I hear OPEC is going to cut production. It would be nice if, like the Trump days, we were energy independent. Every President back to Reagan promised it. Trump achieved it.
The US was not energy independent under Trump. That's a fallacy. I've never seen any real proof it was true.
