The gas tax in the formerly
great state of California, already the highest in the nation, is about
to take a jump of approximately 65 cents per gallon due to actions of
the California Air Resources Board. This appointed body makes
decisions, only rarely reviewed by the legislation, with regard to
ANYTHING that MIGHT effect air quality. Their reasons for making their
decisions do not have to be justified. They recently announced that
they intended to interfere as much as possible with Elon Musk launching
more rockets from Vandenburg because the members of the board do not
like Musk's politics. That was the actual announced reason.
This
massive gas tax hike was in fact reviewed by the legislature due to
public outrage. The legislature, which is controlled by a
super-majority of the Democrat-Socialist party in both houses, has just
decided to take no action in the matter.
This will shove gas prices into the $5 plus realm at name brand gas stations and close to $5 at budget stations.
And the voters keep voting for these assholes. It really is sad.
