2 Ah, come on Gavin, do what you really want to do. Seize the means of production and operate in the name of the people!

3 Gavin is but one of a collection of bad leaders that the state has had in the past 30 years.

The state in attracting oddities has lost the idea of Basic Concept of Government. Protect the Public, keep the lights on, and do it in the background cheaply.

It's current SOP of giving groups of whiners what they want for votes has increased TAXES, COSTS, created massive homelessness and has been a big part of it's downfall.

4 I've heard of concerns that if not enough refineries are pumping oil into the pipelines there won't be enough pressure to keep any oil at all moving through the pipelines. Then there will be no oil except what the state is able to import from other countries who do not suffer from the same environment regulations that California has in place. Not only that but it will be far more expensive, not just financially but environmentally, to ship that foreign oil to California. Those tanker ships burn a helluva lotta diesel and cost a helluva lotta money. Gas prices at the pump will skyrocket. The state also has new taxes on gasoline that have yet to take effect. Some predict the price of gas in California could go as high as $8 per gallon. When that happens, it will become impossible for Newsom to ever get to the White House.

5 Only 13 Refineries can mix the gasoline blend that is needed to satisfy CA law. And you better believe only Democrats run these refineries too.

6 Gavin Grusome is just pathetic. To drive out Chevron, established in California in the 1800s, says it all.
