THE COST OF MOTION

The prices at the pump are not a mystery. The Indiana Capital Chronicle laid out the math. It is just a breakdown of how much we lose to the machine.

The cost is split into predictable layers of extraction. Each layer takes a bite.

  • Crude oil prices fluctuate based on global chaos.
  • Refining costs add to the burden.
  • State and federal taxes drain the remaining margin.
  • Distribution and overhead finish the job.

The numbers do not change the reality. We are paying to move through a dying landscape. The cost of fuel is just the cost of participating in a broken system. There is no way to avoid the bill.
