Water is required for life, gasoline is not. Many people think gas is a necessity, but you're not going to die without it.

Down here when a hurricane comes, they only laws enacted on gas are anti price gouging ones intended for emergencies. Even though everyone needs gasoline for generators or evacuations and shortages abound, the state doesn't ration it and everyone still seems to do just fine.
