“the other day, I went to fill up my car with gasoline, and the price tag was a little over $75. I gulped because, of course, it's always a shock, and it has been for the last several months every time I've filled up my car, and I know it has been for most persons. Most Americans, I'm sure, do not consider this to be just the price of doing business and having to go to work. ``Okay. No problem. I'll just do this and not complain.'' But, you know, I thought about it, and there are so many people to thank for this situation we're in that I'm paying $75 to fill up my car, and it's probably going to get worse by the way. We all recognize that. I was wondering who to thank for this situation, who to thank every single time I go into the gas station. Who is really responsible? Of course, I think, for every single American, every time they go in to get their gas and every time they look at that pump and have it say something startling back at them like $75 or more, of course, thank your local environmentalist first.”
