Why are leftists ok with this?
$8 gas in California
They literally blame Putin. They're stupid.
they drive ev's
cuz they're dumb and drive biofuel shitboxes
russia
Don't believe the hype. Only 1 out of 100 cars are EVs. MAYBE 1 out of every 50 is a hybrid. Californians like to drive, a lot. We probably drive more than any other state does.

Those fags will gladly pay any amount if they can convince themselves that it's helping to support Ukraine's freedom.
Actual leftists use public transportation or bicycles. Champagne socialists drive EVs.
*Californian like to drive, a lot. This fuel fuckery is fucking us up real good.
fuck em and hopefully it hits $15 gal in a year, they chose this new world
They'll insist that it just means minimum wage needs to go up even more, then mumble some halfhearted rationale about European prices per liter. They're blind and lobotomized by their ideology, but call anyone who strays outside as part of a cult.
Because they are religious fanatics that have replaced faith in the divine be replaced by faith in material politics.
Like all religions they can help you to tolerate and persevere through all sorts of depredations in the name of the faith.
WHAT THE FUCK I NEEED TO CONSOOOM THE GAAAAS
HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO GET TO THE FUNKO POP STORE???
I'm a leftist, anarchist, in fact, and no, I am not ok with prices up to 5-8 a gallon of gas. I, myself, hate inflation caused by corporations trying to point to one political party or the other while raising the prices to create a strawman, when it's the corporations and the state's fault in the first place.
Because they don't need vehicles as their primary mode of transportation is riding Biden's dick.
Yeah but, who asked?
Average gas price in California is $6.18/gal, dishonest Any Forumsfriend, and leftists aren't okay with it. Republicans seem to be though, considering they just unanimously voted against a bill in the House to relieve gas prices. Why are right-wingers ok with this?
>I'm a leftist, anarchist
So you are a failure who thinks he will have a high status position in the communist regime
You poor poor fool
how am i supposed to enjoy angeles crest with this bullshit
>just lower the price of goods arbitrarily with laws
HMM quite the precedent you absolute cuck. Why would you give the government more power when they are the cause of the current failure?
Bicyclers.
>inflation
>caused by corporations
Lmao. Unironically kill yourself you dumb fuck. It's the monetization of debt through central bank financing that causes inflation. Too many dollars floating around. Corporations have nothing to do with this. How do I know you're a retard 18 year old who is financially illiterate? Oh wait, that's right. You're meme flag.
Because democrats are Bidencultists. Joe could literally shit in their mouths and they'd beg for more.
The only reason everyone in the USA is paying more than 3 bucks a gallon is government interference
This is done on purpose, your elite hate you.
*You're a commie meme flag
Because they don't want to drive nor want you driving. That want you going through TSA traveling more than five miles from your home.
>being a cuck for multinational oil conglomerate
Do Any Forumstards really?
>Leftists
I'm okay with this. Fuck California.
>Mfw $5.50 in Illinois
Republican legislators voted down the price gouging law
The people literally voted to keep high gas taxes by a wide margin
I don't know why I still live here
>haha bro you gotta trust me. we have to impose price controls bro. just trust me bro. who gives a fuck if it causes shortages and an even further skyrocketing of prices bro we're sticking it to the oil sheikhs bro ahahah how based is that?
You too, kill yourself.
Leftists are part of the parasite class.
They disproportionately staff industries where the cost of transportation doesn't matter (I.e laptop jobs), where the increase is costs benefits them (I.e muh green industries), or where it doesn't matter (I.e they live in some big city bugbox and don't drive anywhere).
Gas increases almost exclusively target the working and middle class who work in traditional industries - I.e the "deplorables".
>thinking the Oil Companies and the Gov are different
HAHAHAHAHAHA
They raised the fuel tax 50% a few years back. What retards. They could have just raised it 100%. Why hold back? Not like anyone would do anything about it. CA needs dem programs and a train to nowhere.
Maybe you like to be treated like shit?
Just sent our entire military across the ocean to fight terrorism ;) definitely not “stabilizing” the region for cheap gas
That doesn’t bother me because I’m Chad who actually uses locomotion to get to places.
Your gas pollutes the environment too, so I’m glad you can’t afford it.
You should try it sometime.
*shifts gears*
Have you ever spoken to a Californian?
They're not very bright.
I wish it were 10x that so we could kill this shitty car based society
Why can't Americans shut the fuck up about gas?
Literally walk for once in your life, you fat retards.
Nah, it's really just because I live within walking distance from the beach
But there are s many spics around even that is losing its appeal
You have literally no idea what you're talking about.
>The Consumer Fuel Price Gouging Prevention Act would grant the president authority to issue emergency energy proclamations and make it illegal to increase gas and energy prices in excessive and exploitative ways. It would also expand the Federal Trade Commission's power to investigate and address possible price gouging by oil and gas companies.
I know you think you sound smart and like you know what you're talking about when you mindlessly say things like "price controls" but you're just embarrassing yourself.
Also
>let's impotently complain about gas prices 24/7 and then oppose any and all efforts to do something about it
Now get back to licking those oil company boots, cuck, you missed a spot.
Everything is too far apart. You can live in a city center that is full of niggers and live in a 20m shoebox for $2000USD or live 15-30 min away and commute.
US had light trains and electric trams everywhere, but boomers tore them up in the 60's/70's.
You can't just get a loan to fill your tank? Why do hate Ukraine so much?
> call yourself a progressive
> drive heavily subsidized ev
> get tax credits for it
> not paying taxes to mantain roads through gas
checks out
yes walk 30 miles in the extreme heat to the grocery store ivan
The PATRIOTS could follow Europe's lead and demonize cars and car culture but instead just raises the price until a core component of American culture becomes a luxury good.
>while raising the prices to create a strawman
You Xir, are a MASSIVE retard.
is fucking us, not the state (local and fed), which, like very much last year IPO season, will mean massive tax earnings, which they will spend of gibs and gifts to other countries
I was born and raised in L.A. Left 10 years ago. CA is basically an extension of Mexico. Garbage everywhere. Shitty chain link fences. Goblin people. It's a fantasy place people from other states move to. But that dream died 50 years ago.
>voted against a bill in the House to relieve gas prices
That is NOT how things work, commie.
You realize fossil fuel price impacts literally every product because everything requires shipping and electricity and Petroleum is in plastics and thousands of various chemicals used in every day products?
>excessive and exploitative ways
Wow that sure is specific and not at all vague as fuck
