Old people should not be forced to pump their own gas. people might put gas in the wrong cans. They are call-filling neophytes. You begin to wonder just how dysfunctional people in New Jersey really are. These are silly arguments because the other 48 states have been able to overcome these giant problems.

People have looked at NJ’s gas prices and said they are the same as in the South, but it turns out that the states don’t tax gasoline the same.

So for every ingredient in Heinz 57 sauce, there has been a year of people not pumping their own gas in New jersey. If they ever decide to change that, they will have to play ketchup.
