I love how it said they are googling “why are gas prices so high”
Should be

Mmm let’s see…..All the taxpayers are leaving the State,and there’s not enough welfare money to pay your voters …So keep raising taxes?

Want to hear something truly sickening? One of the reasons for California's high fuel prices are the huge amount of state taxes tacked on to every gallon sold. Most people know that already
A couple of years ago there was a chance for the people of California to vote on rolling back a lot of that tax and thus lowering fuel prices. I mean, they got to vote on it. Should be simple, no? Easy choice. Everybody I know was all in favor of it.
Guess what? The citizens of California voted against the reduction in gas taxes. The southern part of the state voted overwhelmingly to keep the taxes in place. The northern part of the state voted for the reduction but we didn't have enough voted to carry it.
Sometimes it's really embarrassing to be from California.Flat Earth Trucker, Dino soar, Diesel Dave and 3 others Thank this. -
That sounds like Illinois. The entire state is red except Chicago which is who elects their “leaders”.Last edited by a moderator: Oct 24, 2021

Some people for whatever reason think paying higher taxes on anything is better..for life of me I can’t figure that out other than some folks think they’ll get a lot in return but that hardly off ever is the case.Flat Earth Trucker and D.Tibbitt Thank this.

So....what is the reasoning for the SoCal residents to keep it in place? There has to be a reason/benefit behind that. It wouldn't make any sense otherwise.Flat Earth Trucker Thanks this.
