I agree, and for those who are living reasonable lives and doing what they can I do have sympathy. However, I also believe this is very VERY few people. Even people who can barely afford rent seem to have a sense of entitlement. I know way too many people that have stupidly large vehicles for their income and needs/uses. I could probably argue its the majority of people I know, sadly.
The thing that really sucks is if we can't convince the majority to reduce their fuel usage the problem is only going to continue to get worse. Thankfully, in the past couple years the OEMs have really been working to increase mileage. That is the only thing that is reducing our usage currently, and its only by a couple percent.
