Does anyone else think that Gas prices are outrageous?

Question

I deffinetly do!!! I mean, where i am, it 4.29 a galon! thats crazy! the average american only makes about $300 a week, and if gas is costing you $100 a week, your not going to gety ver far on $200 a week, thats only about $10,400 a year, thats a HORRIBLE INCOME!!!!! If people start realizeing that fact, we might end up not even going to work! its not getting you very far anyway! and of course, if people stop going to work, then company's will begin to shut down, and if companys shut down, then America will eventually FALL APART!!!!! What do you truly think?

Go look at that.

As you will quickly see, gas prices are NOT that high. In fact, they're about normal. Lower than some times.

America won't fall apart, because this is normal.

Answer 3

I have yet to find anyone who dosen't think the gas prices are crazy.

Answer 4

If you're so outraged, start driving a more fuel efficient car, carpooling, walking, biking, using public transportation.  

Then I'll believe that gas prices are actually a serious problem for you.  But if you can afford to go on spending $100 a week on gas without changing your driving habits, then I think you're just whining.
