They are not talking about poor people specifically they are talking about the country on the whole, they are talking about the system:
Car centric country suffers when the basket they put all their eggs in increases in price.
Country. They are talking about the country.
Your analysis is not wrong, but it’s a bit short sighted because it ends with the hurt at the pump. The “plebes” are being hurt by the high gas prices because our system makes them vulnerable to fossil fuel shock. Because the governments of this country have systematically built car dependent cities.
Maybe the country could have built a more robust transportation network so it isn’t reliant on a resource that has had crisis after crisis for decades. Its these decisions fucking the plebes. The plebes deserve alternatives to relying on fossil fuels.

…so crap on the plebes just trying to buy groceries and get to work?
fuk you too
That’s not what they are saying in their comment. You’re rage baiting.
Yes, it is
The wealthy do not give a FUK about gas prices
The only people that get hurt by high gas prices are the plebes
…and these articles, pushed by yankee billionaire owned “news” are designed to try to worry and undermine Canadians belief in our wonderful country

I agree - but your comment just shat on the people suffering the most
