$0.60 jump in gas prices near me today

The beautiful thing about our economic system is that we can never run out of gas because it'll become too expensive to buy

[–] Athena5898@hexbear.net 5 points 2 weeks ago

This is going to be very interesting to witness. I would expect some breakage already with an extra dollar for gas. But I still see the tanks people call vehicles driving around.

Which means my original conclusion that the size of vehicle on top of type is a indicator of class to some degree might be true. Give or take Lyft drivers and the likes of course.

Never have I been more vindicated in not owning a car. Sure everything else is more expensive too but at least I don't have to worry about filling my tank or waiting in fuel lines. Peddle power & electric trains for me all day please
