“I’ll explain again. Lower income people are still on the road because they have to be.”

This is simply not true. We have bars that “low income” people hang out after work and they are packed. Are these on a direct line from home to work. NO.

I see people driving in “low-income” cars all day long. People complain about price of gas while buying cigarettes!!!

I really do not care what people spend their money on, but to think that there is still a lot discretionary driving and spending by ALL segments of the economy and to think otherwise is frankly just not accurate.

Yes, it is.

I'll see your anecdotal evidence and raise you anecdotal evidence. The bars in my town are pretty much empty outside of Saturday night.

but to think that there is still a lot discretionary driving and spending by ALL segments of the economy and to think otherwise is frankly just not accurate.

There is still some of that going on because people are borrowing to do it. In the next few years, they won't be able to borrow more.

I'm sorry, it's simply incorrect to assert that gas is cheap and that people are just whiners for complaining about it.
