A blast from the past: https://www.redstate.com/diary/williamjameson/2011/01/20/obamas-energy-sec-wants-7-to-9-unleaded-gas-prices/ Chu said he favors gradually ramping up gasoline taxes over 15 years to nudge consumers into buying cars that are more fuel efficient and homes which are closer to work. Chu spoke with The Wall Street Journal in September but the newspaper did not publish the gas tax comments until last seek, shortly after the Nobel-prize winning physicist had been identified as Obama’s nominee for Energy secretary. The president-elect acknowledges that gas prices have come down since the summer when they reached $4 per gallon. He worries, however, that the overall economic downturn makes American families ill-equipped to shoulder higher prices. “I can imagine in the hearings Chu facing problems because he dares say, ‘higher prices,’” said Schipper. “But I think there is no solution that does not involve higher prices.” Schipper, who shared a lab at Berkeley with Chu from 1972-74, estimates that the average cost of gasoline in Europe at present is somewhere between $7-9 per gallon.

Given the loons you have running state government out there don't be surprised if CA tries to take more in gas tax in a move redistribute money in the CA economy. 9 minutes ago, Joe in Winslow said: Here in the hot zone we pay 2.05. across the river in PA, they pay 2.55. South of Rochester, NY it is 2.05-2.30 per gallon for 87 grade. Last I knew state and federal tax was around a quarter but that could have certainly changed.

So California's tax revenue must be going down then. The State should probably raise government pensions to compensate. 1
Buffalo_Gal Posted March 29, 2020 Posted March 29, 2020 Remember to order for home delivery if you can! Check if your favorite restaurant has delivery (they may have now if they didn't before). Grubhub has some free delivery deals, doordash has a $10 credit if you have a Chase Sapphire reserve card (possibly other credit cards?), ubereats has some $0 delivery specials, etc. National Restaurant Association says 11 percent of restaurants could close for good; Trump says it's possible </snip> In response to a question from the press, which cited a National Restaurant Association survey that found 3 percent of all restaurants had already closed for good, President Trump said he heard 3 percent “could be lost,” but acknowledged that “10 or 11 percent” could go under in total. </snip> 2
Trump_is_Mentally_fit Posted March 29, 2020 Posted March 29, 2020 Trump is the socialist now. To get this economy going will require socialist spending on a mass scale. Can’t deny that
