[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'll fill up at Costco tomorrow and won't need gas again for a month.  Be like me, drive less, depend on your car less.  Oh wait, you chose to live out in the burbs where you don't have options.  Oh well.[/quote]

Are you always such a smug urban a-hole, or is it just today? [/quote]

There is a crazy commie or climate-change sock-puppet cheering on crazy inflation which will rise prices for EVERYTHING, including food and utilities for those already living in apartments and drive people into poverty.  I already live in an apartment and love my urban lifestyle, but I don't diss others who make different choices, so this idiot pisses me off, because he/she has no clue what tremendous challenge this will be for the working poor and middle classes regardless where and how they live.

These changes have been coming for decades. Literally my entire adult life. If you were busy fighting the change and clinging to some artificial suburban ideal then why should anyone feel bad? Choices have consequences.[/quote]

What changed exactly in the last decades? We still have suburban sprawl and only a few really dense cities.  And the way suburbia develops is to provide easy access to everyday amenities to reduce the driving distance, some even provide walkable downtown areas for suburbanites to walk.  And believe me, those who can afford a 3mil home in DC metro and 3 luxury cars aren't likely to reduce their "footprint" when working poor living hand to mouth doing low wage jobs have to move to smaller more squalid apartments.  Inflation will hurt the poor and middle class more than UMC and wealthy. [/quote]
