$7 gasoline in the near future???

asianautica,

I hope you are right about people seeing the scooters. I think a lot of people are just going to drive less rather than give up their cars and trucks. They are probably waiting for the prices to come down on gas, but this time, I think it is staying high for good. The government makes tax money from the sale and they really have not done anything since the last crisis in the 70’s other than to lower the speed limit. I do not expect any help from either party on this issue, but I did call the Governor and Feinstein to give my two cents.

I agree that people will drive less, but they will only drive less to go out and such. Driving to go to work cannot be changed. Unless you expect them to move closer to work. Maybe the new buyers can do that, but buyers who bought between 2003-2005 are stuck. People who bought long time ago might not want to do it either since they think it’ll go back up eventually and they don’t want to “give” the house away. My take on it is, either suck it up and deal with the gas price as it is, or change your car/driving habit. You can’t have your cake and eat it too.

While this is doing terrible damage to our economy and the general psychie of the average US consumer, I see it as a good thing in the long term. People will live closer to work and the city. We will use oil/fossel fuels more efficinetly and will reduce our Carbon footprints on a nationwide scale.

Indeed. With the north pole likely to be ice-free this summer for the first time in recorded history, it may be the only thing keeping us from self-destructing.
