Occupy the GAS PUMPS

[TBF]

7. That would be new for the bourgeoise for sure -

but working folks have already been conserving. I have family members in small towns who work for McDonald's or travel to another small town for work (midwest, job pickings are even more slim in the rural areas). $4/gallon gas makes it hard for them to break even on going to work at their minimum wage jobs, never mind extra trips.

I'm not sure what the ultimate answer is, because like most progressives I'd like to see more mass transportation and alternative energy methods addressed and get off this oil roller coaster. The problem is that something like the price of oil hurts so many people in this country and it's one thing they can relate to because they all have to deal with it. Then they decide to vote republican because they watch FAUX news with all their friends and view it as news as opposed to entertainment. And that's how you end up with a freak like Santorum as president.

I really don't know, it's very frustrating.
