Drivers in Buffalo are paying the highest price for gas in the nation, according to AAA.
The average price for a gallon of gas is $2.85. It’s $2.80 in San Francisco, the second highest metropolitan area in the country.
Wally Smith, AAA spokesman, tells us he’s been working to get an answer as to why, but isn’t having much luck.
Right now, the lowest prices in the country are in Kansas City, Missouri. Drivers there are paying $1.88, almost one dollar less than in Buffalo.

Yeah whats the deal with this? I know we have high taxes on gas but it should be about the same across the state.

I really dont understand it, a city that is hurting badly from layoffs and lack of work in general and we pay the most for gas, does this make any sense ? seems as though the poor really do just get poorer in this country.

Was talking to my pops about his property taxes the other day…
that fires me up even more than gas prices. Makes me not even want to consider buying a house in NY.
tax upon tax upon tax upon tax
Don’t forget cigarettes too. Regardless if you smoke or not, it’s absurd how much they’re charging people. 7.00 a pack is stunning considering what you can buy them for in other states (less than 2.00 a pack last time I was down south)
oh, and the driver responsibility act. Just another way to double charge you for speeding tickets
it’s absolutly insane that these people keep getting re-elected. I hope to be out of this shithole of a state in the next few years
