    Gas prices aren't shit. People need to quit bitching.

    I pay maybe an extra $100 a month now versus a year ago. Not a big deal.

    If you can't find a way to make an extra $100 a month, you got bigger problems.

    Really? I spend an extra $200 a week....going between here & my friends out of state etc. on weekends.

    Which is about an extra thousand dollars a month. But yea for people who drive 40 miles a day....I don't understand the bitching too much.

    Only an extra $100 to drive the ferrari to & from work eh allan?

            $100 a month to the general public is a big deal, you gotta figure most people do live paycheck to paycheck with minimal savings that a hike like that could cripple them over time.

              I know a lot of people in this position. If you work for a set company for a set salary and you live for the next paycheck, if your bread, milk and gas costs go up 50%.... where does the new money come from?

              People like us can't comprehend that of course, but the 90% of people out there struggle.

                  It's funny and true. People will pay $XX a meal several nights a week and spend $4 on a cup of coffee... but heaven forbid... that extra $20 a week is ruining life as we know it.

                              Very true... all in all it takes 23 cents in gas to get to the office instead of 16 cents. If I can't afford an extra $3 a month I have some serious problems.

                                Point is people blow money elsewhere but complain about a little extra gas cost. I'd rather then an extra $5 than walk 50 miles. And maybe have one less frappuchino that week.

                                    You are so right,I was having this conversation with my brother. He makes big bucks and he looked at me like people really have that problem?
                                    I go to a local diner, was talking to the waitress. She is in her early 50's and she has to work 6 shifts from 6am to 6pm to put food on the table. Gas hikes hurt her big time.

                                        There are a lot of people that an extra 100-200 a month might be 10% of what they earn.

                                            My friend's car costs $.10 a km in gas, and she drives 40k each way to work. She's young, so she gets paid $10 an hour right now. Almost a whole hour of every day is spent just paying for her travel to get to work. That's just not cool. I would call that a very frustrating situation.

                                              It would be that easy if all my customers were people like you however they are everday Americans for the most part. The gas prices alone are a smaller hit that takes away some of the extra cash they may have beyond their paychecks. However it does not stop at gas either. Food prices are going up by the mid to high double digit percentages which is a huge chunk of families budgets. Most peoples electricity bills have gone up, same with natural gas, cable, water, and nearly everything else besides their paycheck. Even if they got a 30% raise today they still would have less spending power than they did before due to how much everything else has gone up.

                                                  Yes, that's life. The majority of people can not make an extra $100 a month, and do "got bigger problems."

                                                      Gas prices are crushing businesses like shrimping boats and diesel shops.

                                                      How are whales gonna keep pumping credits into a cam site, when their own businesses are on the verge of collapse?

                                                      But hey, not a big deal.

                                                                      If you can't find a way to make an extra $100 a month, you got bigger problems.

                                                                      How much is a gallon where you live? I'm officially at $4.50 for regular. I call that ridiculous.

She's young, so she gets paid $10 an hour right now. Almost a whole hour of every day is spent just paying for her travel to get to work. That's just not cool. I would call that a very frustrating situation.
                                                                              I thought $0.10 per kilometre sounded "expensive" until I worked it out for my car...

                                                                              14L / 100km average consumption (6 cylinder 4.0 litre w/ full time climate control)

                                                                              x $AUD1.60 per litre cost

                                                                              = $AUD22.40 per 100km

                                                                              or $AUD0.224 per km (about $USD0.22/km or $0.35 per mile)

                                                                              I know some people who travel every day to a job 100km away. Obviously the fuel consumption is better at highway speeds but it's still a fair amount of petrol (around $USD30 per day), and more importantly, wear and tear on the mechanicals. To stick to defined service intervals they'd need to have their car done every 45-60 days.

She's young, so she gets paid $10 an hour right now. Almost a whole hour of every day is spent just paying for her travel to get to work. That's just not cool. I would call that a very frustrating situation.
                                                                                      The logical question would be why does she work 40km away from where she lives... I understand everyone has their own situation and stuff like that but if I was living on $10/hour I'd be trying to save money where I could.

                                                                                                    If you can't find a way to make an extra $100 a month, you got bigger problems.
