Gas prices are displayed at a gas station in Palo Alto, Calif., Wednesday, March 29, 2000. California oil companies are adding to motorists' misery at the pump by making excessive profits on gasoline, Attorney General Bill Lockyer says. He suggested Tuesday that lawmakers approve an excess profits tax combined with a corresponding cut in the gasoline sales tax to ease California prices, which are running about 19 cents more per gallon than those in the rest of the country.
