I showed you the math, Idiot..

If it about California, why did diesel hot a new hogh in Texas?

 

Enough with the questions.


High State Taxes and Fees
California tacks on some of the highest fuel levies in the nation.
Excise Tax: State excise tax is 48.2 cents per gallon, plus a 24.4-cent federal tax. [1]

• Sales Tax: A 13% state sales tax (plus local additions) applies on top of the base and excise costs.

Strict Regulations and Refineries

The state's isolated fuel market requires custom-blended cleaner-burning fuels. [1]

• Refining Loss: Refineries have converted traditional crude capacity to renewable diesel. [1]

•  Compliance Costs: Stringent cap-and-trade and low-carbon rules raise wholesale baseline costs. [1]

•  Market Isolation: California cannot easily import replacement fuel during shortages.
