Getting good gas mileage is great. Spending $70 to fill up, not so great.

I just finished a round trip from El Paso-Tampa and average was about $4.85 for my trip.

When does it get to the point where people start picketing and protesting?

I'd ask at what point is it too much for you? What's stopping you from picketing and protesting now? You have a protected right to do so on public grounds. So, do it. And I suspect others would join you.

But there are many ways to fight. 'Picketing and protesting' can manifest in many ways. How many of us, if we were honest with ourselves, could take public transportation, or otherwise walk/bike, to our destinations?

And if we could, would we?

And if we could, but don't, whose the more foolish: the fool, or the fool who follows him?

If we can afford to picket and protest, then I wonder how we can afford other means of transportation to wean ourselves off the nipple of the oil/gas industry.

Some gas station got to $7.01 here in Socal last week and at the meantime, I still see people cruising around in their Tundra, F150 Raptor, old expedition, Yukon, Tahoe etc.


What i think will happen, is that this gas price will speed up the transition to EVs. Thats how we will response to it.

I live basically in the country, 25 miles one way to work. No public transportation available. I guess I could bicycle to work.

Drive less! Walk (or take public transit) more!

Price just dropped 40-70 cents overnight where I live, 93 went from $6.70-7.00/gal to $6.40-6.70/gal, I even saw one citgo as low as $6.05/gal. 87 is almost exactly a dollar cheaper than that.

 

[Civics4Ever]

Wow, great news! It's only about $2 more per gallon than we used to pay.
