I’d assert that taxation isn’t the reason for the huge disparity in prices state-to-state.
State taxes per gallon applied in Oregon and North Carolina are identical at 40 cents, yet the current average cost per gallon in Oregon is $4.20 and the current cost in North Carolina is $2.82.
What we have HERE is a failure of the market.
