Amahingi Egesi eSouth Dakota: Okuthini Abashayeli Azithenge ampumpuni
ISouth Dakota ihlezi entlankeni yamakwantshi amaphansi aseGreat Plains, futhi amahingi ayayo alandelela umkhiqizo ojwayelekile owesubo, ibanga elisuka ku-refinery, kanye nomuntu othi alingana oshayeli kulo lonke imizila. Njengamalavela amakhukhuni, inani eliphakamileyo para ikhwela legesi elinjwayelekile kumuntu esifundeni liyiyi $3.737. Umkholo omfushane ubangu okungaba $3.964, isigaba esiphakameleyo sikhula ku-$4.461, futhi ummsele — umzila womzimba wesigaba sokuthele kanye nokuthwahwela umuntu — uvunguza $4.329 ka-galoni.
Lelo nani lijwayelekile lilandelela komhlaba womhlaba komkulisa ka-$3.867, ekwambalala umvomela Midwest. Izifunda kule nhloso ngokuvamile zithandela igesi echaphezulu kunezitshiyalelo ngoba zihlali kufuphi nohubhathalali lwamaphansi lobuzibiliwe kanye neendlela zemizila ethungiwe lokhulethi ubuzibiliwe okakamath neOkanada.
Okuthi Kukhuluma Amahingi ampumpuni eSouth Dakota
Amabuthi athathu ayenza okubona uphathe Sioux Falls, Rapid City, noma yinye isigaba esilamakheletsaneni I-90. Okokuqala kusubo. ISouth Dakota ibeka umsubo womoto wegembe lama-28 cents ka-galoni wegas kanye noma-28 cents wemsele (kunesilinganiso esiphakameleyo ezithile zikhohlo), alingana emahle nomsubo wezembe ka-18.4 cents para gas kanye noma-24.4 cents para ummsele. Ngubani wonke, amasubu abalwa okungaba 46 kuya 53 cents yayinye ikhwela — kwezifo ezikhodwa kumhlaba womhlaba futhi ngaphansi kwezifo eziphakamileyo.
Okwesibini ubukhulu umkhiqizo wegesi. ISouth Dakota ayinaye enkulukazi enkhulu yoile eyayo. Inyingi yegas kanye nemsele ifinyelela i-pipeline kanye nebhalusi evela ku-refinery kumhlaba womkhiqizo, okuhlanganiswe nendawo engazibiliwe zamabanga ane-Canadian ne-Bakken wethwaliwe ngokuya ekhoneni nasebukozini. Umuntu ocishi omuntu umuntu ozalilizwe oshayeli, kutshisane-nde isigaba samanzi kuzikhulini asikela ayazigcina umuntu umuntu uma isikhompuzi amaphansi asibonakali ethempini.
Okwesithathu ukuba namandla neqopho lezonti. Umsubo wemsele wegcina uzuza ngokushubhane nokuhloshwa, ethane — okukhiqizwa ngokulinganisiwe evela kwixipho likaSouth Dakota — i-blended kumjwayelekile wehluziwe emaphetheleni. Isifunda simu ngeya ekwa asinguezi okukhiqiza ethane kumbutho, futhi lokho komkhiqizo womuntu owalingana kusiza kugleda isigaba lijwayelekile. Umkhatshelo wekamuva-welizwayelekile wokungaba $0.72 unambazane kunezinye izifunda, okulandelela imisindo engaphansi ephakamileyo kumakethi amaphansi kumakethi aphansi.
Njani ISouth Dakota Iyalingana Nama-Naba
Njengoba uAmerika kuqala ngasikhathi nje legesi ngenqubu egali ngaphandle ko-galoni, ukuqhathaniswa kumagathe kungeke kumele lukhela umuntu kuya umuntu — azisunele ukunguqula imali. Amahingi lijwayelekile eSouth Dakota ayalandelela agrikale asezo nemihlaba angayisikali echaphezulu komhlaba womhlaba. Izitshiyalelo ezitshiyalelo ngemindeni yamabanga agcina okukhulunywa: unganikeza uthwala nalungile nge Maryland, Virginia, noma Delaware, apo umandla womuntu omkhulu futhi amasu awesubo ayahlukene ngenhloso. Izikhungo zobulalela ezifana ne Florida zikwambuka ngokwayo, kunama-ngasikuzalela ekubunjwa kwabadali.
Esifundeni esingamasikhulisela ambalwa, amahingi ahlala yothambile. Abashayeli asifundi balindele uze bathenge emkhondeni emakhakhasini emaphansi futhi emthakatheka esijuwa likaSioux Falls neRapid City.

ISouth Dakota ithola inzuzo yokuva komuntu okufuphi neMidcontinent neOkanada ubuzibiliwe omkhiqizo, amasubo amashintshwane wegesi okungaba 28 cents ka-galoni, kanye nokukhiqizwa ethane nangokwengeziwe liyomakethi okwenziwe. Ka-$3.737 para lijwayelekile nakuphakate $3.867 komhlaba womhlaba, isifunda likhala ngaphansi komhlaba womhlaba — umkhiqizo ojwayelekile kumakethi aMidwest.

Ngabe ISouth Dakota inayo enkulukazi yoile eyayo ethunga?
Cha. ISouth Dakota ayinaye enkulukazi enkhulu futhi iyathunga okwesigaba segas kanye nemsele ngiphipini kanye nebhalusi evela ekuthungeni emaphansi ehluzo.
