Reading through this thread confirms my long standing belief that many if not the majority of Piggington contributors live in a world apart from most Americans.
With so many people out of work, 50 million on food stamps, and many many more living hand to mouth I’m sure these gas priceincreases have real impacts far beyond trite blog entries.
But in general I have little sympathy: most people want BIG SUV’s and TRUCKS: number #1 and #2 sellers last year: F-150 and the Silverado.
Mark my words: a good majority of people would literally go hungry before giving up their full size trucks and SUV’s.
Remember we are a country with an average IQ of around 98.
