Probably. Only a year ago when gas would spike 20 cents you'd see a noticeable drop in commuter traffic. Now with gas topping 3.50-3.60 for regular it seems like no one cares anymore. Its as if people have become immune to the cost of gas. Or according to my dad, they have given up paying their credit card bills and mortgage payments and simply don't give a damn since they can't pay for it anyway.
