People will pay $1 for 20 oz of water in a bottle, then whine about $2 for 64 oz of refined gasoline.

That's exactly what I was going to write, but in NYC, 20 to 24 oz of Spring Water (or even Aquafina or Desani, which is nothing but "purified" tap/municipal water) costs between $1.50 and $2.00 a bottle. People need to take this into perspective.

People need to get over the idea that they're entitled to cheap gas.

They won't because they will say that bottled water is a choice. To that I say so is driving. I don't have to live 30 miles from my office, but I chose to, it's a southern thing.
