Sucks to Be You; Gasoline Edition

Lots of people are complaining about the price of gasoline. Many people have tried to cut back on driving by asking the old question from World War II: "Is this trip really necessary?"

But this whine in the WaPo is getting a lot of mocking, and deservedly so:
“We have an au pair from France, and she recently filled up our minivan and gave me a bill for $70,” said Melanie Janin, a mother of three from Bethesda. “I was like, ‘Oh, my God.’ ”
My heart bleeds for her, truly, it does.

I think my heart bleeds for the au pair.

No, don't feel bad for her. She's getting a great perspective on history. She's seeing what every day life was like before the French Revolution.
