Izindlela Zegesi eMaine: Okuthi Abantu Bhalala Emaphamphini
IMaine ilele esigqokweni senyawo yasekunene kweUnited States ekutheni, futhi leyo geography ibonakala ngqo ekuthini ababoleka batola ngesiphethiloli. Kuze kune-reading okulandelayo, i-regular gasoline esifundeni se-Pine Tree State ibhalala $3.909 nge-gallon, i-mid-grade ibhalala nge-$4.467, i-premium ibhalala nge-$4.946, futhi i-diesel ibhalala nge-$5.295 nge-gallon. I-Regular nje inkhathi anje ilingana imasentimitha embalwa ngaphezu kwe-US national average ye-$3.867, indawo ejwayelekile yesifunda esisehla nkonkane yonke isiphethiloli esisuka engaphandle kwemingcele yaso.
Kungani Izindlela Zegesi eMaine Zisini
IMaine ayikhiqizi i-crude oil futhi ayilungiselela yinayo. Igaloni ngayinye ifika nge-pipeline, i-barge, noma i-tanker truck, okwengizimu kuyo kuqondiswe ngeziteshi e-Portland indawo futhi kudhludluliswe umtshontsho ezindaweni ezakumele. Leyo nzuzo yemozibilikazi izindlela enkulu njengoba i-Maine ebhalela okuhle ngemikhondo eside kunamandla asendlela: okukude nesiteshi esisuka esikhungweni sokuvuthela, okwedlule ibhalwa emaphamphini. Ngokuncane kweziteshi ezinkulu zometro fuel markets esifundeni, ukunikelwa kuqeqeshwe kumpakandlela oyindlulamithi njenge-New Jersey noma Massachusetts, lokhu kutholakala okuwele umuntu wokuthola amandla amade.
Izinkontshi zesifunda ziyinye indlela enkulu, ekuthanda ngokumilenze. IMaine iqamula i-per-gallon excise tax ngesiphethiloli futhi ilinganiso eliphakeme ku-diesel, imakwefu phezu kwe-federal excise ye-18.4 cents nge-gallon ngesiphethiloli kanye ne-24.4 cents ku-diesel. Lezo mithetho engathekeleli asolwazi abantu abashintsha nokusetshenziswa kwemakethe, ngakho-ke lapho intengo ye-crude iphansi umuntu othola inzuzo enkulu yentengo ephelele, futhi lapho amanzi weoyile ashayeka umuntu othola intengo ephakemile. Intengo ye-diesel ephakamile oyibona apho — okwedlule i-dollar eyodwa kunokuthi nge-regular nge-gallon — ibonakala kokubili i-diesel tax ephakeme futhi inzuzo enomusa ekuseni, njengoba imafueli yezgeze nemafueli yecoldwater i-diesel zinesikhalo sechemical okulinganayo futhi i-New England ichotsha isikhathi esikhulu sefueli yezgeze emakhaya ngexesha lokulanda okugibela.
Imafueli Yezgeze, I-Currency, Kanye Ne-New England Context
Ngoba IMaine yisikhungo esisongo-zakhiwe ezezikhontshi ze-heating-oil, izindawo zayo ze-distillate market (i-diesel nemafueli yezgeze) zingase zibe nokubambana kanzima ekseni lapho aba-refiner nabantu bokuthenga babhangene ngebhokisi elinye. Leyo ndlela yesenzo ibonisa isizathu sokuthi i-diesel lapha ivame ukwedlula i-national diesel averages. I-Gasoline, kodwa-ke, zulindela izindlela ze-regional wholesale futhi zinwele ekuseni okucolo olwandle.
Konke kukhuluma kuzindlela zeMaine kuhlanganiswe ngama-US dollars nge-gallon, ngakho ayikho i-currency conversion okukhona ukwenza — inkinobho nakweqela abelufu abaningi abesiya-Canada, lapho iphethiloli ibethengiswa nge-litre ngama-Canadian dollars futhi i-exchange rate ihlala iyahlela ukuthi hlobo elihle lomlomo luningana. Okwamanje, izindlela zesiphethiloli zase-US zihlala zitholakala ngalomu kuqhathanisa.
Abakuselamela i-Maine babalombela indlela yokuthi ezinqumo zomthetho ziphakamisa inzuzo. I-Tax-light New Hampshire eselamela ipharamita levuliwe i-Maine, zizuza abelufu baseneksi, kanti amane-lower-tax e-western states nge-Utah zibonakala indlela yokuthi inzuzo ye-fuel-tax regime kanye nokuqondiswe ku-refining capacity kungatholakala. Indawo ye-Maine eyesibili—imasentimitha embalwa ngaphezulu kwe-national average kodwa kuncane kunokuze nokuze kuphela kunokukhula kwesigebe esisekunene—iyisiphumuzo sokukhohlela kwamakontshi akuncipher, izindlela zesupply ezide, kanye nokuthi kuneni imakethe e-in-state yesigciniselo ekuncane kunokukhula entsha.\n

Ingabe igesi ibikhulu kancane e-New Hampshire kuneMaine?
Uvamise, yebo. Amakontshi amancane e-New Hampshire e-fuel avamise ukwenza izindlela zesiphethiloli kancane kunokuthi e-Maine, okwenza abelufu besikethubeni umkhulupi kugcwalisa apho. Ungakwazi ukuqhathanisa izindlela zamanje ekhasi le-New Hampshire fuel-prices.
Ihambisana njani i-Maine ne-US average?
