I have to disagree with you on higher gas prices don’t hurt people. They do hurt people when their wages dont rise to accommodate the rising prices taking from their income.

They may sit all day at work but the costs incured by week or month in travel can double. 25 a week turns into 50, 50 a week turns s into 100. It might be okay if work is around the corner but not across town or farther like most. Also higher gas brings other prices up  including food which is also too high as it really didn’t go down all that much after the 08 high but a little better. I remember at the high seeing a Hershey’s candy bar one of those big ones for 10 dollars. I couldn’t believe my eyes. All I could think was well this year a bunch of kids are gonna be saved from the dentist. I was thinking if I wanted some candy least knew out to make it and already bough up supplies when I saw it was gonna rise for baking.  So yes it does make a difference. It just doesn’t make a difference economically with wages or  creating jobs with lower prices either way. In California they used the lower prices as a exuse to add another dollar tax per gallon. They won’t drop that it it rises again, there too ,!!! brain dead unethically corrupt.
