Are High Gas Prices Just Hurting Low Income People?

i'm totally against the idea of releasing oil. i find it so ironic that the bidon administration purports to be interested in fighting climate change, but at the same time are taking this incredibly short sighted action. People with lower incomes do tend to spend more of their money on gasoline than people with higher incomes. Some states have proposed giving any one who owns a car in california a 400 dollar debecart. Every time you drive another mile, you still have to pay the high gas price.
