A lot of Americans are in bad situations and/or have complete carbrain and will commute 40+ miles one way for work. One of my professors drove 200 miles per day because his wife had a job in a different city. Americans deal with high gas prices because they assume it's temporary and perhaps voting for the other party will lower the prices. Americans can deal with a lot of hardship or pointlessness if they assume it's temporary or only impacts less than 10% of the population.
I'm curious to see how much people can take. It might have to get to a point where the cost of gas exceeds a weekly paycheck for people to care.

I feel like they're always some chud manager who drives some full size SUV so they can tow their boat once a year too.
My manager lives like an hour away and drives ones of those huge 4 door lifted trucks that requires a foot hold thing and a grabby bar to climb into
