Higher Gas Prices Are by Design
(00:01.13)
Just saw this out of California. Gasoline prices in California are at the highest point of the year, almost back to levels that they were last year. Regular unleaded gasoline in California, $5.26 a gallon, so $0.10 over the past week, $0.37 over the past month. Los Angeles County alone?
The average price for regular and lead was $5.36. Nationally, we’re at $3.85. Got California is number one. The state of Washington is number two. All of this, my friends, is by design. It’s by design. This has been in the works for a very long period of time. Well, what do I mean by that? Let’s go back in time, shall we? Let’s go back to the Obama.
Obama administration, Barack Obama’s first energy secretary is a guy by the name of Stephen Chu. And, I think it was these Dr. Stephen Chu, Dr. Chu, a little Freudian slip out. And I don’t miss things like this. I really don’t. Basically said that he wanted gasoline prices in the United States to be commensurate with what they are paying in Europe. Wanted higher prices.
wanted to force people to buy electric cars, alternative vehicles. And again, this was in the infancy because we’re going back to the Obama administration and he had his little American Recovery and Reinvestment Act and Solyndra. And you remember when Barack Obama got into a Chevy Volt and buckled himself in and proceeded to drive it what five feet and then unbuckle and get out? Anyway, again, all of this is by design and
to everybody out there in California that you voted for this stuff. So do us a favor, don’t complain. And this is what you wanted, people. I can’t stress this enough, okay? Elections have consequences. You make these choices, this is what you’re going to get. And again, they continue to push. Continue to push.

people in this direction. I was reading another story the other day, it was talking about the electrification and having chargers up and how gas station owners, they want no part of it.
They don’t want to have any part of these gas, I mean, excuse me, these electrical charging stations. They know they’re gonna lose money. They’re not gonna recoup their costs, not to mention the maintenance that’s involved. So let me tell you what the government’s gonna do. They’re gonna start forcing the hand of what? They’re gonna force the hand of utility companies to put these things in. And the utility companies are not gonna wanna lose money. So what are the utility companies gonna do? They’re gonna raise your electric prices.
So whether you have an electric vehicle or not, you’re gonna be paying for these charging stations in some way, shape, matter, or form, because that’s what the powers that be want. That’s what they want. And yeah, it’s funny. I was thinking just about the movie Wall Street.
When, when Bud Fox, uh, Bud Fox gets, uh, decayed on a, on a trade, the guy doesn’t pay for his trade, the stock goes down, the options went down and he had to pay. And it was the sales manager. Somebody’s got to pay. Ain’t going to be me. Um, guess what? We’re going to pay.
We’re the ones that are going to pay for this electrification. We’re the ones that are going to pay, even if you don’t have an electric vehicle, you’re going to pay for the charging stations that are being put up because the government’s going to force your hand. And again, you know, they tell you to smile. Oh, we should love what’s going on. Look at what they’re doing. Right. Sure. Watchdog on wallstreet.com.
