You must be a real youngster, if that's the cheapest you remember gas?
When I got my very first car, at age 16, gas was 32 cents a gallon!

As far as todays generation vs. my generation, the kids are so used to handouts, they don't have a clue what to do after school, which is half the reason the we are so messed up in this country.
They were given "hand outs" back then too, it just was not realized because it was a lot more integrated into the family values and way of life.
