People just need to man up and quit crying. You don't NEED to drive to 5 different grocery stores, when 1 will do. You don't NEED to drive alone, when carpooling would work.

Not every single person has these options. I have no carpooling options to and from work...at all. I dont even have the ability to take public transportation to and from work.
So what do i do to get there? Drive or Ride. sure i could find a new job...but its not as easy as saying it.
we dont NEED 400 dollar smartphones and 800 Dollar Flat screen TV's...but there nice to have...would you sell less gas if it was 20 dollars a gallon? Sure...but the point is people would still buy it.
If theres a gas station on one side of the road and a gas staton on the other side and one had gas for 3 dollars and another had it for 3.25 the guy selling it for 3.25 would still get buisness...Why? bc people who are to lazy to make the left or right into the cheaper gas station bc its not on there side of the road and the 3.25 station is "easier" to get to...Trust me I've seen it many times.
