As much concern that exist over the price of gas, there is also apathy. One person recently interviewed on a local Austin,TX. station suggested, if you can't afford a few more dollars for gas, maybe you should think about finding a 'better' job. {:>{

I was at a store on Saturday morning, there was a woman sitting in a car, cellphone plugged into cigarette lighter, car running, just sitting there wasting gas because it was OH SO IMPORTANT to be on the phone, her husband was walking towards the vehicle waving his arms telling her to shut the car off.....she just ignorned him.

If it costs $40 more a week to fill up now versus 2 or 3 years ago, that's an extra $160 a month. If you're an hourly employee, a job that pays just $1 more per hour would (just about) cover the increase in gas.
