It's very sad that people are stealing from one another, and also the gas price gaugers in surrounding states. It's getting up to 6.00 a gallon in states where these people are traveling to escape. It's 3.49 here and to me that is NUTS. I understand that there is a low supply in crisis, but the news even said people are taking advantage, and getting large fines. They say that it could be months before people see any insurance money, and in the meantime, they have to come up with money to keep their payments on time. How do you do that when you have nothing left? Hopefully companies will work with them. I cannot imagine going through what they are going through. Sending your kids off with strangers, and not even knowing exactly where they are as means for survival. People are making some major decisions and sacrifices, that I hope I never have to endure. I respect them a great deal, and am going to do all I can to help.
