I'm actually getting tired of the whining about gas. People, we've been SPOILED for a long time. We pay way less for gas proportionally than we do for Starbucks, booze, and any number of other items. We still pay way more for a gallon of organic milk at the grocery store!

Everyone better get used to this, because the prices are not likely to drop much in the future. This is why the rest of the world has thought we are crazy for driving our big SUVs and trucks - Europe pays two to three times as much as we do for gas! It's time to rethink the cars we drive and rethink public transportation in this country. OR, adjust budgets to fit in this expense. I actually think this could be a great A-ha! moment for this country.
