Good on ya! I wouldn't do it again. That being said, I don't regret doing it.

Can you give some examples of how it got weird?

A lady wanted to bring her cat.

A man demanded he drive my truck.

A couple asked me to drop them off.. and watch their young child while they went in and voted.

And in most areas, you can contact your county's Democrat Party headquarters, or Republican Party headquarters to let them know that you need a ride, and they will get a volunteer to help you.

Gas is expensive, would it be wrong to call the party I don’t like to pick me up?

CEOs of big oil sure. Their record profits are the drivers for expensive fuel. Political parties unless they taxed the rich and corporations, make no difference

Yeah they have been, because that's not the driver of expensive fuel lol

Certainly a major contributor of it. These CEOs are buying back stocks to make money for their shareholders at the expense of everyone else. For anyone saying the COVID stimulus TWO years ago is what is causing WORLDWIDE inflation is just like wrong.

Record profits in 2022.

Near-record inflation in 2022.

Edit: also way higher demand than supply. Stop parroting POTUS’s talking points lol

So the link I posted was insufficient? Also… Sorry I didn’t know it was trollish to correct someone.

Ur a habitual troll, I seek no understanding for why you do what you do, but as an aside I'm sorry for the recent loss of your best friend, my deepest condolences to you and yours.

From my view, you can both be correct. Higher demand than supply allows a supplier to increase prices, thereby increasing profits

To help consumers, we could look at a few different strategies:

  1. How do we increase supply?
  2. How do we reduce demand?
  3. Should profits (gouging?) be limited despite the supply/demand situation?

Oddly enough I found out my town has 2 lines to call for rides on Election Day.

One says call a friend

The other gives you walking distance.

I’ll be here all night.
