I live in the US and there are lots of single occupant drivers of
trucks driven as a fashion statement wasting millions of gallons of
gasoline every day for which we compensate by grinding up corn to make
ethanol which has significantly increased the price of anything using
the corn such as poultry, milk etc. Anyone observing this could rightly
shake their head.
