Oh well... we need it, we're gonna pay for it. People bitch about 2.50 a gallon but will walk into that same gas station and purchase 20 ounces of filtered tap water from aquafina for 99 cents and not even think twice about it. That works out to about $6.34 a gallon for tap water. Go figure...

(from another gas griping thread).

I'm not saying that I look forward to dumping in 17 gallons of 91 octane in my G all the time but damn... why doesn't anyone complain about everything subject to inflation. Because that would be every product we own, buy on a regular basis, or plan to buy in the future. I am definately not on the oil tycoons side but do we bitch to Ronald Mcdonald about him charging a dime for a burger in the past and now 1.99 for the same piece of dead cow between some bread? Or complain to crest because they have us cornered since we NEED to brush our teeth and now charge 4 bucks a tube instead of 22 cents? No.

Thats all. [^]
