Show Notes
California is about to shut down several of its last major oil refineries, and while politicians celebrate a “green victory,” the rest of America is about to pay a devastating price. As the nation’s largest refining hub collapses, nationwide fuel shortages, exploding gasoline and diesel prices, crippled supply chains for food, medicine, trucking, and aviation are inevitable.
This is no longer a California story — it is rapidly becoming a full-blown national energy and economic emergency that will raise the cost of living for every American family and threaten the stability of the entire U.S. economy.
On this urgent episode of Dangerous Intellectuals, refinery expert Mike Ariza delivers the unfiltered truth politicians and media refuse to face. He breaks down the brutal second- and third-order effects already in motion and explains exactly how California’s self-inflicted crisis is about to become America’s crisis.
