    I don’t know exactly why but Washington state gas is crazy high. Normal is $4.50 since ~ 2019. How come we can’t get cheap gas? Doesn’t matter now. Soon you’ll have $5 gas and we’ll have $7 gas. I want to see us go full Europe…$10 gas!

      If gas gets expensive maybe it will make Americans reconsider how much their lives are revolving around cars and help push for more green alternatives and better urban planning.

        You can’t reconsider having to walk 3 Miles uphill in freezing rain to get milk and water. In other places you can indeed ride a bike to various places.

      Washington, similar to Cali, has a lot more gas tax built into our prices which is why they’re higher than most states. I think like .55/gal is taxes alone.
