Default Fuel price this winter

Jay, I think you've picked on the wrong 'crowd' . The 'crowd' responsible
for high fuel prices has been blocking conservation measures like higher
CAFE standards that would have helped the demand side of the supply/demand
cost equation.
The same crowd gets a lot of their personal wealth from high fuel prices.

In Germany 2,21 EUR/Liter (100LL)
Makes about 12 USDollar/Gal
Why do you complain?

Bluntly and succinctly put, Curt, we complain because we don't want to
end up like Germany.

The first step toward correcting a problem is recognizing that it
exists. What you call "complaining" we call "constructive
criticism"...

Taxing an activity until it becomes nearly impossible, as your
government has done to flying, has traditionally been verboten in
America. Unfortunately, the anti-smoking crowd has paved the way for
a whole new series of "social engineering through taxation" measures
that threaten many aspects of American life -- not just flying.
