I'm paying whatever they're charging.

I know that you guys aren't whining and complaining -- but I sure am getting tired of those that are.

Of course I don't like paying $1.70 for gas. But you know what? Adjusted for inflation, the price of gas in 1990 would have been $2.50. Seriously, we basically have 10 years in which the price of gas hasn't really gone up that much.

The same people complaining will pay $1.40 for a 16oz bottle of water or $3.50 for a Starbucks. Just imagine what a gallon of vanilla extract would cost!
