    Why do other people care how others spend their money?

    Is it really because you feel they are hurting the environment more than you? Is it jealousy? Seriously, why is it?

    Someone asked "what will doucebags drive now"...well they drive all sorts of cars and bitch about what others drive.


    a little touchy, are we? do you are the little lady drive a hummer?
    don't compete; coexist

    what are you but my reflection? who am i to judge or strike you down?

    when you told me 'if you can't beat 'em, join 'em'
    i was thinkin 'death before dishonor'

    For myself it is not caring about how others spend their money. It is about all of the gas guzzlers effecting supply and demand of gas resulting in higher gas prices for everyone. This also effects the economy . Of course these people have more disposable income to spend on higher gas pices than poorer people so why should they care, right?

    that's far from why gas prices are so high.

    Why do you care if people care about it?

    Good question. I guess I don't really. It just seems weird what people are willing to stereotype and profile and what they aren't.

    c'mon cincy do really think i'm stereotyping? if someone lives in some isolated area where access requires a tank (which is all a hummer really is) then i have no problem with them driving one...i live in la...what practical reason would one need a hummer to sit in rush hour traffic or take their kids to school? i sure as shit can't think of any
