$3.09 in Kansas City. Not awesome, not crippling.
A rather left wing acquaintance told me he'd like to see gas a $10 a gallon, because the resulting market forces would help push electric cars. I countered that the folks most hurt by that are working people who are just trying to get by. Folks that probably drive used cars, can't afford $10 gas, and certainly can't afford a new electric car. I also said that until we get reliable zero carbon electricity in the form of nuclear power, we really haven't fixed anything. His perspective was that any form of economic, cultural or infrastructure change inevitably leads to hardship for some people. But, that that those hardships are in this case worth it, because the alternative is extremely severe - climate change that threatens the survival of all humanity within a few generations. He did agree that we needed to be building nuclear power plants.
