Back to a senile sniffing president, third legs in girls’ sports, laughing about coconuts, “leaRing centers,” mosques in every city, drag shows for kindergarten, endless impeachments, raging crime, and turning every city into Detroit or Portland.
And while we’re at it, can somebody PLEASE bring back my concrete and roofing crews from Mexico? I’ve got work to do.
Meanwhile, I’m over here working 13 hours a week at Starbucks, and somehow I STILL don’t have my $600,000 starter home.
I’ve also got $123,000 in student loans for my Bachelor’s Degree in Ugandan Basket Weaving Studies.
This country is so unfair.

I do not know where you have been, ConFedSs, but at the COMPREHENSIVE Public School I taught for most of my career, we taught skills for electricians and carpenters (no, not plumbers), and other trades, such as HVAC and Auto work. We also trained future workers in Hair Care, Nursing and Health Care, and other programs, too. Keeping guys and ladies teaching in those skills programs was TOUGH, but we did find some.ConfederateSS wrote: Thu Sep 17, 2026 8:55 am----------------[size=20 YES , VOTE FOR JEFFERSON DAVIS...epic0002 wrote: Thu Sep 17, 2026 6:56 am Can we please just go back?

California.
The median diesel price in California is $8.40/gal, +$1.94 versus the national median, the 1st most expensive of 48 states with data. Tracked across 264 truck stops, refreshed multiple times per day.

Is diesel expensive because of CA taxes Jusplay? Or because of the guy you refuse to talk about now that he's betrayed all his campaign promises?
The video I posted is from Indiana, the picture I posted before that is Florida. Maybe we should start with learning the 50 states and then move onto math

I suppose this is Mookie FINALLY admitting that his state of CA has very high fuel prices. Thanks, Mookie. It took a while, after overwhelming evidence that I supplied.mookiemcgee wrote: Mon Sep 21, 2026 12:55 am When government actually work, we pay slightly more in taxes so the gov't can pay for things. Then as citizens, we get to enjoy those things the government paid for. Yes CA has high gas taxes and now the highways are great and LA isn't smoggy anymore because we've cleaned up the air. These isn't some tragic tale of politicians overruling the will of the people, it was an amendment passed directly by voters in CA because we like clean air and good roads and understand it has to be paid for somehow.
These tax dollars aren't being spent bombing schools in Iran, or shutting down free trade, or supporting genocide in Gaza... they are used to fix highways and roads. They aren't being used by an egomaniac to promote his personal financial interests, or to settle his personal grudges. These taxes don't cause the price of diesel to go from $3.60 under Biden to $6.50 under the one I'm not allowed to talk about or I will be marked as mentally insane by the cultists.
Keep paying your high taxes, Mookie; ENJOY.Retail prices for regular grade gasoline in California are consistently higher than in any other state in the continental United States, often exceeding the national average by more than a dollar per gallon. Several factors contribute to this high price, including state taxes and fees, environmental requirements, special fuel requirements, and isolated petroleum markets.
Taxes and fees
The components of retail gasoline prices are taxes and fees, distribution and marketing, refining costs, and crude oil prices. Drivers in California pay the highest taxes at the pump, equivalent to $0.90 per gallon (gal) between local, state, and federal taxes as of March 2025. (...)
Environmental requirements
In addition to state taxes, the California Energy Commission estimates that environmental compliance costs added as much as $0.54/gal as of March 2025. The state’s Cap-and-Trade Program and Low Carbon Fuel Standard reflect costs associated with fuel supplier emissions and carbon intensity, and these costs are ultimately reflected in the price consumers pay at the pump.
Special fuel requirements
California also mandates a special blend of gasoline designed to reduce pollution and improve air quality. This fuel burns cleaner but is more expensive to produce because it requires more processing steps and expensive blending components. (...)
Federal taxes—which are the same for each state—account for $0.18 of the $0.90/gal in taxes. The other $0.72/gal is made up of state excise tax ($0.60/gal), state sales tax ($0.10/gal), and an underground storage tank fee ($0.02/gal). California’s state gasoline excise tax is the highest in the United States; the average across all states is $0.28/gal.
Gasoline prices in California have seen significant fluctuations since March 2026. As of March 8, 2026, the average price for regular gasoline was $5.16 per gallon.
By May 11, 2026, prices peaked at $5.97 per gallon, marking a notable increase.
This represents a rise of approximately $0.81 per gallon within a few months.
