But they ARE being affected, that's what you're missing. Chevron might not sell in LA or Miss, but their competitors DO. That means their competitors are shifting supply in that direction, which in turn reduces supply here. So for every gallon of gas Chevron has here in CA, there is now an increased amount of demand because there are fewer total CA gallons compared to total CA demand. THUS PRICES RISE.
It's basic economics, really.
