NYC Mayor PANICS: California Refinery 3,000 Miles Away Just Made New York Gas MORE EXPENSIVE

Phillips 66's LA refinery shut down this week (139K barrels/day GONE). Most New Yorkers think it's California's problem. They're wrong. Here's how a refinery 3,000 miles away just made YOUR gas more expensive.
THE HIDDEN CONNECTION:

NY is 4th largest gas consumer in US
NY produces ZERO gallons (no refineries)
Colonial Pipeline supplies 45% of East Coast fuel
100M gallons/day through single pipeline
Pipeline already at MAX CAPACITY daily

CALIFORNIA COMPETITION:
→ CA lost 139K barrels/day (Phillips 66)
→ CA importing record 279K barrels/day
→ 70% from Asia (South Korea, India)
→ CA now competing for same tankers NY needs
→ Every tanker to LA = one less to NY
MAY 2021 PREVIEW:
🚨 Colonial Pipeline hacked: 6 days shutdown
🚨 12,000 gas stations affected
🚨 Panic buying across East Coast
🚨 NY Attorney General issued price gouging warnings
🚨 Chaos lasted WEEKS after reopening
GULF COAST DILEMMA:
✗ CA needs Gulf Coast fuel
✗ NY needs Gulf Coast fuel
✗ Pipeline at max capacity
✗ Every barrel west = barrel not going east
✗ Refiners cutting production when storage full
EAST COAST VULNERABILITY:
📊 Lost 400K barrels/day capacity since 2017 (33% cut)
📊 Only 20 days fuel inventory (same as CA)
📊 If both coasts draw reserves simultaneously: NO BACKUP
📊 NY imports surge 15% as refineries struggle
SHIPPING COST INFLATION:
💰 Singapore→LA voyage: 30-40 days
💰 Tankers burn heavy fuel oil
💰 50% more CO2 than pipelines
💰 Shipping costs added to pump price
💰 Asia demand up 40% in 5 years
NY ALREADY PAYS MORE:

Special fuel blend (pollution reduction)
$1+/gallon in state taxes above national avg
Transportation to expensive real estate
Energy costs hundreds more/year than US avg

RIPPLE EFFECT:
When gas ↑ → trucking costs ↑ → food prices ↑
→ Everything delivered by truck/train/ship costs more
→ Pizza, groceries, Amazon packages ALL affected
CALIFORNIA COLLAPSE:
1983: 40 refineries
2025: 8 refineries
April 2026: 6 refineries (Valero closes)
NY followed same path decades ago. Last NYC refinery closed years ago. Zero new construction planned.
Energy Information Administration warning: CA closures "could contribute to price increases across the country." Distance doesn't matter in connected fuel markets. CA cut supply + increased demand = NY pays more.
