The cost of boating just went up. Gas hits all-time high.

It doesn't go far enough, because asking people to pick a different car is
venturing into a decision that verges on religion. I can't think of any
other product which is so tightly bound to people's egos or crotches than
automobiles. Like I said, it would take a real president with balls to
touch the subject. The message would be somewhat insulting, but sometimes,
people need a bucket of cold water dumped on their heads.
Have no fear. The concept of supply and demand in a free market will do all
the policing required. At some price people will take drastic action and
demand will fall quickly. The oil companies and others involved still have
to sell product to sustain growth while covering costs.
Prices will drop.
