Chevron refinery explosion in California

Import more of what, Kevin?  You remain baffled and clueless to the gasoline problem in California.

Problem 1.  California has isolated itself from cheap domestic oil by refusing to allow pipeline construction.  The state imports 60% of it's crude from foreign countries.

Problem 2.  California has made the business climate so untenable that two large refineries are scheduled to close within 6 months.  Few refineries outside the state are capable of producing California's unique gasoline, making it expensive to import.  Unless the state's anti- refinery stance is changed, including massive subsidies to refineries, refining capabilities in the state will continue to shrink.  20% of the gasoline used within the state is produced at two California refineries that are shutting down by April 2026.  When this happens, California will be forced to import more gasoline from very expensive sources.  There will be supply glitches along the way.  Already high gasoline prices are going to increase substantially when these refineries close.

Problem 3.  Hyper Liberal California politicians simply do not grasp the problem that the continue build as rapidly as possible.

Kevin has proven that he can't grasp the problem.

Why are you celebrating the explosion?

Explain how I'm celebrating.

I do chuckle at Liberals whining about the consequences of their actions, and being oblivious to the connection.  Liberals have pushed 2 refineries to close.  This will lead to higher long term gasoline prices and long term Liberal whining.  I don't celebrate the refinery explosion, but because of California boutique gasoline blend, a Liberal policy, gas prices will spike substantially.  Had this happening outside of California, gas prices would increase, yet not to the extent of the California jump.

Just look how much electricity prices have jumped in California because of wind and solar.  It's terribly expensive.

Boilerboob: "Liberal Liberal Liberal HONNNNNK!" while dancing in joy about the refinery explosion.

   No one is "dancing" - the citizens of California will pay more for their gasoline because of the governing of Newscum and the DemocRATs. 

So...you're buying Boilerboob's bleat that the explosion was caused by Democrats?

Wow. You really are a moron.

  Please post where Boilerman stated that the explosion was caused by DemocRATs. 

Read his asinine nonsense in this thread. He's wetting his panties in joy and babbling about "Liberals."

  The only one "wetting his pants" is you
