Take a deep breath. Try to look at it this way: $8+ a gallon gasoline would go a long way toward forcing people to find new sources of energy, so that perhaps we could finally move away from oil and on to cleaner, cheaper, renewable fuels that won't be subject to wild price fluctuations due to circumstances totally beyond our control. That would be a good thing, yes? It would hurt in the short term, but it would ultimately be for the best.
