Higher prices are to discourage people from using too much gas and and pollute the environment
>>523993530The taxes barely have anything to do with itThere's no oil in california islandtard, Texas is 1000 miles away
>>523993836Retard the reason why is because California is a communist hippie shithole that won’t oil companies drill. Supply and demand take effect. No more oil supply while demand increases means prices go up. Texas isn’t a communist hippie shithole that virtue signals itself into a collapse

>>523993836>1000 milesIs not very far if I'm being honest.
>>523994102>Texas isn’t a communist hippie shithole that virtue signals itself into a collapseTexas and also Louisiana have the highest incidence of industrial plastic pollution and toxic chemical and waste spills. And right-wing populist retards love to signal about how much the powers that be are putting chemicals in the water turning the frogs gay. Fucking hypocrites.
>>523993836>There's no oil they can drill due to environmental laws in californiaFTFY. Did they really remove all those Derricks from highway 101 just to confuse you?
>>523993836>There's no oil in california islandtardCalifornia makes about 500,000 barrels a day. This is greatly reduced because of government regulations stopping enhanced recovery. But it's a sizable amount.However California had a lot of refining capacity but that's going down, with a large refinery closing in the last few weeks and another large refinery set to close in spring.
>>523993530Shut the fuck up you cretin.
>>523993530the whole libshit ideology is basically just codified hatred towards anyone more successful than you, and all its laws are motivated by spite, trying to break those people's legs to drag them down to your own level.
>>523993836>There's no oil in californiaare you retarded? california has multiple massive oil fields.there are also further taxes and regulations hidden within the refinery cost and crude oil costs on your chart
