$3.71 in my state. Keep in mind average US prices include California, Hawaii, Washington, (all over $5) and Oregon and Nevada, both nearing $5.

Environmental regulations and taxes in the west coast states drive prices much higher than other states, skewing the average higher. Prices are as low as $3.55 in Kansas.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

We are still around 3.55 here.   I'm sorry for all the poor blue state people held hostage.

To find higher gas prices, you'd have to go all the way back to the Biden regime.

Nobody's really complaining...simply making note of the sudden shifts, depending on the news cycle regarding Iran.
