This is nothing new. People were complaining about the price of gas when it went over a $1.00. And, remember, the price is driven by supply and demand. If we used our cars a little less often, we could save...but, we choose not to that, as a Nation. During a visit to see our daughter in Minneapolis, my wife and I walked four miles round trip to get an ice cream cone. Everyone else in the ice cream store drove, and looked at us as if we were crazy.

Even when given the chance to buy more fuel efficient cars, over the last two months, with the so called Employee Pricing, people bought trucks and SUV's...go figure. Of course they still complain about the cost of gas as they sip their $7.00 Latte coffee's.

This is a Capitalist society and it is driven by the people buying what is sold. If you don't think the profit margin is fair (whatever the market will bare) then you have the choice of not using the product.

I personally will continue to use the premium grade of gas since it has an upgraded additive package to help keep the engine and fuel injection system clean. I am averaging 23 miles to the gallon with combined city and highway driving.

Sorry to be so long winded, but I have been hearing this complaint for 25 years!
