Court gives fuel producers a win in California

A look back: The Johnston-Voltman debate
As part of our countdown to our final episode, we’ll bring you something that made a big splash in our first year: A debate we ran over two days between Bob Voltman – who at the time was the president of TIA, an association representing brokers – and Jim Johnston, the longtime president of OOIDA.
