who lives in South Carolina, works in Fayetteville, and burns three tanks of gas a week.
Tell that to the soldiers who are stationed at Fort Drum but live in Lowville or Gouveneur. Thirty miles one way.
Tell that to cabdrivers who have to buy their own fuel.
Tell that to all the people who live in Fayetteville but have to work in Raleigh to hold a job that pays more than $10 per hour. A lot of those people are soldiers' wives who hold MBAs and other advanced degrees, but don't want to work at the place most of the MBA-holding dependent wives work: Waffle House! (Seriously.)
You get the idea. There are a lot of people who are holding down decent jobs but spending most of their disposable income on fuel.
