proof what a fucking moron you areNot willing to. But have to.
First of all, no one is making you buy gas at the point of a gun. If gas wasn't worth what the price of it was - you wouldn't be buying it. Why would you pay $2.50 for a gallon of gas if you think the gas is only worth $1.50? You lose $1 a gallon off that proposition! So clearly gas is at least worth the current price to you - or you wouldn't be paying for it.
Second of all - what I highlighted in black bold faced type is your answer. You - and millions of others - have constructed lives for themselves where they "have to" buy gas. Why do you "have to" buy it? Is it because there is no public transit available to you? Why is that? Is it because you chose to live far from work? Is it because you and others failed to support your cities public transit initiatives?
How did the likes of George Washington and Thomas Jefferson get along without gas?
