Gas prices have gone up about 60
cents in much of CA in the last five weeks and is more than $6 per
gallon in some parts of LA right now. The dynamics are so strange that
fuel is being taken in tankers from the east coast to the Bahamas, and
then from the Bahamas to CA. There are right now only 14 large tankers
flagged in America. If you move goods from one American port to another
American port you must by law do so in bottoms that are flagged in the
U. S. and crewed by U. S. personnel. The drop off and pick up method
allows the use of foreign tankers without violating the law.
Right
now the only good thing I see about this is it may very well make Gavin
Newsom look like an even bigger idiot that he already appears to be.
