Gasoline prices in Southern California have caused a feeling
of reproach among residents against the state government of Gavin Newsom and
the federal government of Joe Biden.
Now fuel prices soared at their fastest pace of the year
last week, according to data released by AAA.
According to consumer perception, the price of gasoline in
the Los Angeles-Long Beach metropolitan area has been rapidly increasing since
Thursday of last week, although the trend has already been seen for several
weeks.
The national average price is almost $2 less ($3.86), which
has infuriated consumers in the south of the state, who are not satisfied with
the absurd explanation that AAA officials have given.
These officials have blamed regional and global factors for
high prices, including flooding in Libya, which makes no sense to Southern
California residents, who believe that if these silly explanations were
supported, the problem would be at least at the local level. national.
"Our pump prices have skyrocketed as a result of
regional refinery outages, as well as rising crude oil prices following the
deadly floods in Libya, which will temporarily disrupt that OPEC nation's oil
exports," said Doug Shupe, spokesperson for the Automobile Club of
Southern California, in a statement.
