Hate to say this but maybe that is why everyone is running from that state. Can't afford to live there. Which is a good thing for us because of the trickle down theory. CA moves to CO, CO moves to SD.... ahhhh The price is right! I love CA cause it set us free by getting our house sold in 4 days.....
Now back to the price thing I believe that during Clinton's administration the congress decided to get involved with pricing. I seem to remember something about selling energy by the therm value. Now take this into consideration diesel sold on the thermal value is way more expensive than gas. It has been a few years but does everyone rememeber when diesel was actually around 15-20 cents cheaper than gas. Well that has come and gone complaints running rampid until forgotten. Now with the new emissions standards for the low sulfer they have to run it through an extra process at the refinery. To do this the refineries had to add the proper equipment at a great expense from what I have heard. So with all the useless bits of pieceless information I have just typed it comes down too.
1. CA is a very expensive place to live. At least until they get the other half of there population on the tax rolls.
2. Congress probably gave the Oil Companies the windfall profits on the same bill they voted themselves a big fat raise.
3. Not much we can do about it!
I better shut up now this is way to political a subject for me. It did get my blood pumping just thinking about though for my morning motivation. Anyone else heard about this thermal pricing for fuel a few years ago?
