So apparently it takes prices above $6/ gallon for some "demand destruction?"
But even in Europe, where consumers are used to paying pump prices double, or more, what Americans pay, there is growing alarm over the effect of rising crude oil prices on fuel costs.
Many motorists are driving less and altering the way they shop, take vacations and carry out other routines, according to interviews and opinion polls. Many airlines, delivery services and other fuel-dependent businesses are either passing increases on to consumers through higher prices or taking deep profit cuts.
We need more people like britains dirving less, so we can enjoy lower fuel costs and drive more. Yippee ! I luv it.
Yeah ! More for us !
