Oil Slick Stuff

State Taxes vary but that's not enough to justify the differences. Local Supply and demand?:suspicious:

Don't forget environmental laws in states like the People's Republic of California. We have an embargo on interstate gasoline. Ours must be made in the State and in a formula that meets state criteria. The oil companies LOVE that, because they can dictate the price and blame it on anything they want.

Everybody knows that when you cross the border into Taxalifornia the gas prices go up at least 15%.

TORONTO, Jan 8 (Reuters) - A Canadian National Railway train carrying crude oil and propane derailed and caught fire in New Brunswick on Tuesday night after the emergency brakes were activated, federal safety officials said on Wednesday.
The accident, the latest in a string of derailments that have put the surging crude-by-rail business under scrutiny, involved 17 cars on the railway's main line, Canadian National Chief Executive Claude Mongeau told a news conference.
Five cars carrying crude from western Canada and four carrying propane were among the derailed cars, he said.
There were no injuries, but the fire that followed the derailment burned through the night. Approximately 150 residents were evacuated, local officials said.

January 12, 2014 11:58 PM

BALTIMORE (WJZ) — It’s a new year, and a new battle with rising gas prices. Jan. 1 set a record for the highest price ever.

Monique Griego breaks down the surprising numbers overall.
For the fifth straight year, New Year’s Day brought higher gas prices than the year before–and 2014 actually set a record for the highest price for a gallon of gas ever on Jan. 1

I don't think Gas prices are that good considering the volume of Oil that is being produced, prices are being choked. You know gas is taxed by the gallon bought, less is being bought because of newer cars getting better gas mileage and tax revenues are down they are keeping the prices up, just another tax increase. There seems to be a lot of that going on I wonder who is doing this?
