I just reviewed what I originally posted, and I will again repeat it, for the record:

The other is comprised of those who have personal, rational self-interest at heart: fuel is now so expensive that it behooves me to conserve it, because the higher the price goes or remains, despite our government having redefined inflation, (i.e. having removed food and fuel costs from the inflation index for more than a decade), the more I'm getting screwed, daily.

Then there are the engineering nerds, who simply enjoy considering problems and proposing theoretical solutions, mostly for the academic exercise of it.

This list has something for everyone, eh?
And you said in reply:

I never mentioned 'honest, just trying to get by, honest, hard-working, honest, etc.' - or anything you implied that I said AT ALL.

Maybe you are quoting someone else, erroneously? Or maybe you are trying to put 'words into my mouth'? It certainly looks that way.

And then there's this final comment from you:

That's on the emotional and intellectual level of a pre-school child, at best.

And so we now know your level and your inability to participate in an adult manner in a discussion. If you continue, you deserve to be ignored or treated as a child.

Reputation matters.
