Did you ever hear of the Politian’s raising gasoline taxes? I just looked on the internet and found that California has the highest gas taxes in the nation with a tax rate of 77.9 cents per gallon (I suspect its higher than that).

Yes I know about gas taxes, does not change the fact that Sacramento and Washington do not control gas prices.


Want to reduce our road taxes etc? Ever notice all those semi trailers (fedx, redway etc) are tagged in other states, yet never leave the state and pay less taxes per gallon (diesel), yep avoiding taxes so we pay more.

A bit of a price war going on in Atascadero with Chalk Mountain decreasing their prices when the new mega-station opened about a block away.

Competition in this arena is a good thing. The new ARCO station is a good thing. Plus, they sell what Chalk Mountain doesn’t. ‘Top Tier’ fuel.

ya, as long as they don’t collude in a price war. felony.
