Okay, we know all the gas won't dry up soon, but it sure is expensive. I got to thinking, what would I do and what would others do if there simply wasn't any gas to buy? Myself, would it no longer be worth making payments on my home and moving to another one closer to work? (I live 30 miles from work.) Would it mean living near work and letting my family live in our home? Would I even have a job to go to? (I work in the aircraft industry.)
What changes would you be prepared to make if things changed drastically for you? Or have you begun to make changes in the way you do things today?
We've begun walking to the store and other places around our local community. I'm buying a motorcycle to ride instead of using my truck to take to work. I've nearly stopped drinking diet sodas and replaced that with water. And we've turned up the air-conditioner 2 degrees to cut down on the cooling bill. I don't consider any of these things to be a sacrafice, but they've been helpful thus far.
