Tbh, I’m not so concerned about myself. But the effect of higher gas prices tends to be very regressive. People who have less means often have to drive less fuel-efficient vehicles and have longer commutes due to housing costs. Additionally, this is going to affect the cost of other things (e.g. food).
People who are already stressed financially are going to really feel the squeeze.
That’s not a bug, but a feature. It means more money flows from poor Americans – often POC or immigrants, who Trump despises – to his already filthy rich friends in the oil biz.
