Gasoline is also made more expensive because of these fucking different "blends" that the refineries have to create.... in very few refineries.

One state has a different blend than the neighboring state. It's bullshit.

We also have states like California that also want to force the automakers to make cars for that state to different mileage and emissions standards than the federal standards. If that is allowed to happen, think what that will do to the price of vehicles.

It's almost like in the 1800's when railroads were first invented. Different and competing companies at first used different gauge tracks. People realized the lack of a nationwide standard would impede and inhibit growth.
