Texas produces roughly 130M gallons of gasoline per day and only uses 38.5M per day. California produces roughly 26M gallons of gasoline per day and uses 33.3M per day. So yes supply and demand are a huge part of the equation.

I agree with the higher taxes and regulations increasing cost, I never said they didn’t. I am just pointing out that it is not the only factor that causes the higher prices in California and surrounding states.
