I am tired of this world, these people. I am tired of being caught in the tangle of their lives.

    Question that will enrage everyone:

    What would you do with $8/gallon gas (in the US where there is very very little public transport). Many many people would be totally fucked.

    There’s a reason this happens unfortunately, there’s prices to pay for modern life, just like the slave labor that built all of our electronics and clothing.

      We are an exporter of oil. These wars increase prices not lower them, and that is no accident.

      Pretending that invading a country, causing mass destruction and death, because America has bad public infrastructure and gas prices might rise is an evil and insane thing to say and a completely head-assed opinion. This is absolutely not a “this happens, unfortunately” situation.
