We should put that on our license plates.
Drew Sheneman | The Star-LedgerOregon, our long standing sister in the efforts to reject the self-serve gasoline industrial complex buckled under the pressure and became a pump-your-own state. Cowards.
Here’s where I admit that I am, in fact, an advocate for self-serve. I’ve lived in self-serve states before and the fabric of society didn’t rend itself apart when we had to slide our debit cards or ask for 20 bucks on pump three. It was quick and I managed to complete the transaction without reeking of premium. It was fine. Really.
The vitriol aimed at the mere notion of giving people an OPTION to pump their own gas boggles my mind. To my knowledge, there’s no self-serve legislation being proposed in Jersey that would require you to pump your own. Full service would still be readily available, but those of us who want to fuel up and get on with our lives would have the option.

The result, 49 other states — that’s all of the rest of them, I checked — now have self-serve gasoline.
