Getting Rid Of Gasoline Vehicles As The Best Solution To The High Gas Prices Issue
Gas prices are always going up, and often fluctuate from a day-to-day basis, regardless if it is a pump or wholesale location. This fluctuation is often due to a culmination of factors, including politics. This means that our current fossil fuel situation is a very complex and intertwined economy, thus leading many individuals to opt for more environmentally-friendly and affordable options; such as electric cars.
Despite this the average amount spent per month on gas is approximately $356, with family-households spending a starter price of $420; all of which is subject to the city and individual needs. This means that many individuals are putting their paychecks towards an empty-handed situation, essentially a one way street for the economy and not the individual, with many oil companies earning upwards of $137 billion per year in profit.
This all begs the question of is it truly worth it? The simplistic answer is no it is not. With $356 per month an individual can purchase a round-trip plane ticket or 12 copies of the “Shrek The Whole Story: Quadrilogy,” leading to over 5 hours of family-friendly fun; both of which are more practical and experiential places to put your paycheck towards. Not only is it more fun, the average amount spent per month is only set to continuously grow given the current booming economic and political state(s); meaning many individuals will have a stronger desire to put their money towards campaigns, relevant causes/organizations and fast fashion.
Another key issue with the ever-growing demand for gas is our already faltering environmental state. Planet Earth is a ticking time-bomb with a fast tracked route to utter chaos and the growing demand for gas is not going to help. Therefore, the constant usage of fossil fuels is not only contributing a larger dent to your wallet but it also speeds up the time we have left on Earth. Both of which are tragic and non-reversible issues.
So what truly is the solution? In actuality it is quite simple, one must just simply remove their car from their day-to-day life. To simply get rid of one’s car is not as simple as it seems. The instant overwhelming supply of cars can only lead to a utter junk-pile, much like the trash island out in the pacific ocean or better known as the Pacific Trash Vortex, instead individuals should simply just blow up their cars. Inner-City governments can schedule one to three households per day to just stand in an open field and set fire to their vehicles.
This gets rid of all the possible clutter-garbage of metal, scraps, leather and chemically created paint. Individuals will not need to worry about creating a secondary trash island but instead further put their minds to ease, knowing they actually helped contribute towards saving the planet. Earning them the same self-esteem booster and satisfaction they get from retweeting a #savetheplanet tweet on Twitter. Not only is it a thrilling experience but it can also be heavily commercialized to become another source of economic; with many families, communities or companies being able now to hold a new and creative bonding event or retreat, all of which is incredibly beneficial and fun.
The solution presented here today not only saves many families big-bucks but can also help further strengthen their community bonds and individual mental health. This solution further creates a snowball-effect thus solving many of our world's dire issues, all with extended beneficial factors and results. Therefore, we should all set aflame our vehicles and the world.
