Today in Fascism

Some of my liberal California friends on social media are freaking out on the Orange Man for the rising gas prices. I pointed out that before the recent runup in prices, California gas was 60% higher than the national average and that the bigger issue is the extraordinary cost of gas in California and not the recent increase in prices (although that sucks too). Their response is that we should be paying more for gas because we have a higher average income in California than other states. You can't make this shit up, that's the liberal mindset.

A few facts: California has the highest gas tax in the country. It has the 3rd worst roads in the US with 27% of its roads in poor condition. Indiana has the best roads with only 3% of its roads in poor condition. Indiana has a similar population density to California. Average gas price today is $3.48 in Indiana, in California its $5.20. Indiana does have a fairly high gas tax, but your getting value for your money with significantly better roads.
I'm shocked they didn't tell you the billionaires should be helping us pay for fuel.

You'd think that, but they will rationalize any position if its anti-Trump.

Newsom is off-limits from criticism by Dems despite the fact he has produced objectively horrible results for California, due to the sole fact he is a foil to Trump.
