  20 min bike ride. Also I don’t use gasoline or diesel, I have an EV.

    So your commute is a fraction of a commute in the US.

    Here it might be a 30-45 minute ride in a car. One way. Do you see why $5 fuel would be a much larger problem here?

    I have an EV

    Good for you. So do I.

    Everything you own and eat involves a diesel engine somewhere. That is the real problem. People with EV’s have to eat still.
