You haven't answered any..

I've done all the work.

 

No, asshole, you did your work.



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.
