Valero is shutting down its oil refinery in Benicia in April of next year.
There has been a story floating around Sacramento for
close to a week that the state of California (which for practical
purposes means Gavin Newsom and the Democrat-Socialist party) has been
trying hard to bribe Valero to NOT close down their refinery next year.
Gavin
Newsom hates gasoline and car owners almost as much as he hates guns
and gun owners. He wants to force people to drive electric cars or take
mass transit. It's a religion to him. He is POSITIVE that he is right
and the inconsiderate slugs who want to drive their own gas powered
vehicles are morally reprehensible. But he wants to be President so bad
it makes his teeth hurt and he knows that if gasoline jumps to $7 or $8
per gallon in CA next year while he is trying to full his pipe dream he
hasn't got a snowballs chance in hell. Therefore this move.
It isn't clear just what incentive the state is offering or whether or not Valero is biting.
