Surging California gas prices set records at the pump on Labor Day

Comments

1. Leo: so are people actually worried about 8 bucks a gallon or is this just us normal folks subsidizing some LA hipster's Tesla?
2. Zoe: i don't get how a harvest would directly cause such huge price jumps - don't they usually factor in supply chain and demand beforehand somehow?
3. Cipher Comet: interesting that prices are predicted to spike in September, usually harvest season affects produce not gasoline
4. Ashen Kite: i don't think anyone's surprised prices keep rising there but what really gets me is how diesel's affected by seasonal stuff like harvests
5. Noah: haven't noticed anyone factoring in the logistics of getting it here at 8 bucks a gallon yet
6. Felix: 8 bucks a gallon? that's just harvesting our money
7. Marek: just when i thought i'd get my chance to drive a diesel truck across the country for under $5. guess i'll have to stick to gas guzzlers
8. Adam: that's just brilliant - how are they planning to keep up with farmers who actually use diesel?
9. Crimson Talon: something's gotta give - they can't keep blaming the fall harvest for this
10. Noahmeyer: I've been noticing our discussion threads are getting a bit...diverted lately. What's the real impact going to be on regular people when prices hit $8/gal?
11. Vosslucas: seems like a clever explanation for the record prices, but is it too simplistic?
