So it has hit over $5 a gallon where I am for the first time ever. The highest it has ever been was $3.79 and that was during the recession with Obama. Before that, it was when Bush was in office and it was something like $3.50 as a high. What pisses me off is that not too long ago, it was just over $1 a gallon. Now we are looking at spending upward of $10 by the end of the year and no politician wants to address it. No one is talking about fixing it.

They are doing this on purpose because they don't want any of us driving. They are going to make gas, housing, food, etc. so expensive that people will start turning to crime more and more. Then daddy government will step in and pretend to be a savior and millions will eat it up. Guys, I think we are f'd. Unless things start turning around this year, we are looking at the great depression times 10.

Gas has ALWAYS been $5+ in San Francisco, CA. So when people complain, I just smile & say "DON'T COME TO CALI"! 😁

Cali has higher prices across the board. They always have. There are many reasons I wouldn't want to live there and financially speaking, the cost of living is one of them. Beautiful weather and beaches, everything else is pretty terrible and getting worse.
