If you want things to change in CA, you need to hire different politicians. No, this isn't an Us vs. Them post. Or a D vs. R post. It's more of a dumb voter post. Those politicians were hired to do a job. If you don't like the job they're doing, get rid of them and hire some one else.
I came to the conclusion years ago that as a group of voters, we're a bunch of morons.

Spot on. Political bent aside, the main reason for the sudden spike is the change over to winter formulations and the self-created shortage they make so they won't be stuck with a bunch of gas of the wrong formula.
Speaking of which, see here:
