[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Americans made choices. They chose to buy large, less fuel efficient vehicles. They chose to buy homes requiring a long commute. They chose not to install solar. They chose to live on cheap credit and counted on the stock market and home equity bubbles never bursting. The chickens are coming home to roost and there’s not a damn thing any elected official can do about it. [/quote] This is kind of heartless and an oversimplification of the situation, but there's a kernel of truth here. I've noticed that the people whining the loudest about gas prices are the same people who drive lifted F150s and 1500s that have never seen a worksite, and the same people who bought houses 30 minutes away from the nearest Walmart. Ironically, they're also the same people who would jump down the throats of women who want abortions or struggling single parents and lecture them about taking responsibility for their choices.[/quote]
