billeisele 122 #26 February 25, 2008 OK, so I got serious and answered your poll America, Columbia, South Carolina - 4% if you only consider the fuel I use for personal use - 9% if you count all uses, including business uses that I get reimbursed for what you may have meant to ask was: how much do you spend per week for personal consumption on fuel, as a percentage of take home pay over the same period?Give one city to the thugs so they can all live together. I vote for Chicago where they have strict gun laws. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

diablopilot 2 #28 February 25, 2008 I don't make the same amount every week. One week it might be 11% and another 2%.

Nor does it work for those of us who currently have no take-home pay. When I did, though, the math worked out to the first option even though I don't fill my tank anything close to weekly (oh, wait, that's not what that poll is about, right)."There is only one basic human right, the right to do as you damn well please.

Squeak's already told us he doesn't care about any of our actual driving habits, nor whether we actually fill a tank once a day, once a week, once a month, or once a year. The only thing that matters is HOW MUCH MONEY YOU MAKE AND HOW MUCH YOU SPEND TO FILL YOUR TANK. We're all quite dim, you see.
