Title: "Free speech is meant to protect unpopular speech

Are there refineries in Charleston?? That sure seems to always do the trick for Houston, Lake Charles, Lafayette, Baton Rouge, Corpus Christi, Amarillo, etc. Individual states also tax at different rates. Texas and Louisiana have just about the lowest state tax per gallon in the country. That's another thing that's hurting California prices.  David "Free speech is meant to protect unpopular speech.

Supply.  The states with the lowest gas prices have the most access to Canadian oil. I'm not seeing the data to support your claim: http://gasbuddy.com/gb_gastemperaturemap.aspx Why does South Carolina have lower prices than Nebraska, but higher than Georgia? Can you cite a source for your claim:  Keystone would add to the supply nationally and, therefore, would lower prices. To repeat something said before, but I guess which went unread, approval of Keystone would have an immediate impact on the futures market. Yeah, I think I missed that. As soon as it was signed, but especially as soon as  contracts for construction were let,  gas prices would start to come down, and it has little to do with China or India, nations that get almost all their oil from the Mid East. That's certainly possible, but by no means obvious.   Why the Keystone Pipeline Won't Ease Pain at the Pump - Businessweek R-Squared: Gas Prices & Keystone Pipeline  |  Peak Oil News and Message Boards Keystone Oil Pipeline Seen Raising Gas Prices in Midwest: Energy - Bloomberg Oil Moves Lower as U.S. Rejects Permit for Keystone XL Pipeline - Bloomberg Gas Prices | Keystone XL Pipeline | Iran Sanctions | Bernie Sanders | The Daily Caller Again, the actual facts may be moot, since we're talking about politics, but I'd love to see your data... -- Ernie P. -- Centroids: The Center of the Radical Centrist Community <RadicalCentrism@googlegroups.com> Google Group: http://groups.google.com/group/RadicalCentrism Radical Centrism website and blog: http://RadicalCentrism.org -- Centroids: The Center of the Radical Centrist Community <RadicalCentrism@googlegroups.com> Google Group: http://groups.google.com/group/RadicalCentrism Radical Centrism website and blog: http://RadicalCentrism.org
