$2.06 here in OKC and 1.96 at some stations.

That said: I don't feel bad at all for CA. The people there who voted in the greenweenies responsible are reaping what they sow.

No new power plants in years and years instead depending on increased power needs by buying it from other states.

No new oil drilling off shore or on.

Gasoline mostly piped in as there aren't that many refineries and none are or have been built in years and years.

CA is paying for it's policy of let other states suffer their non-green policies while we in the Golden State live in paradise.

Well - as Heinlein said "There ain't no such thing as a free lunch". CA is paying for it now.

The eco-terrorists are getting what they deserve along with all the spineless sheep who supported them. Nope - no tears here.

Isn't it amazing how certain states keep their fuel prices higher than their surrounding states?

Some of its state fuel taxes, some of it is supply/demand and some of it is greed.
