There are already electric hybrids that use very little gas.More are slated for 2014 - 2015.If gas goes any higher and stays there it could be a death knell for suburban areas.More people will move to more dense urban living where they can walk and bike to work to reduce costs to survive.Used to there was a small class of the rich,a big middle class,and a small poverty class.Now the rich class is bigger,the poverty is bigger,and the middle class is shrinking into non-existence.Costs are going to rise and keep getting worse and worse.I want to be on the wealthy side.In many instances it is getting cheaper for me to eat out then buy at the grocery store.I can get a 3 course meal at Red Lobster for 7.99 and get 2 meals out of it.The restaurants are not having to raise prices at the rate of the grocery stores because alcohol sales drive most of the profits.If people think it is bad now it is going to get much worse.We need to stop depending on gas for transportation.It's a dead resource on it's way out.
