    The taxes in CA are so high that gas averages like 30cents more than every other state. Yet...we are also the most broke so those taxes won't be changing anytime soon. One of the gas stations that is notorious for being extremely high hit over 5 bucks last weekend I was told. No surprise there, back in 2008 it was almost 6 bucks! OUCH! Talk about gouging the public right there.

    Fortunately the world is ending at the end of next year so it doesn't have time to get too much worse.

    I have no idea why you're singling me out in your responses by quoting me in your posts... but at any rate, your posts sound kinda preachy, so I'm ignoring them...

    One of the MAIN reasons I come to this forum is to get AWAY from all the politics, the economy, religion, bad news, etc.

    Unless it has something to do with reefing, the ocean, or at the VERY least H20, I don't really care to read it here. ;)

    You'll feel the pinch trust me. When I lived in Germany gas costs around $5 out on the economy. Later in 08 when we had the gas hike here in the states I was living in Alaska and depending where you were it hit in the $5.70's for regular. Thank goodness when I lived in both places I did get some per diem though to off set costs.
