(11,259 posts)The fact is that commuting to an office to sit at a desk and work on a PC connected to the internet and internal systems (that can be accessed remotely as well) is an insane thing to do anyway, but when gas is about to hit $6 or even $7 a gallon for non-premium, the pinch is real and the ripple is coming.
Spending across the board is being shed at alarming rates. The entire supply chain of this modern economy is swimming in petroleum from start to finish. Prices are going to soar like Germany after WWI without definitive leadership stepping up and removing Trump and his clowns and sycophants from the room immediately.
We are facing an absolute crisis - unseen in decades - and the imbecile in the big chair should not be trusted to run a charity bake sale. This is how the USA ends, with cos-play 'leaders', ineffective 'opposition' and a population barely able to lift their heads from their phones long enough to give a damn. Jesus fucking Christ...throw in Soma and Huxley was goddamn right!!!
