Gas Prices - Satire Writing

Hey Bloggers! Today we had to complete our Satire Writing. The definition of Satire is : the use of humour, irony, exaggeration, or ridicule to expose and criticize people's stupidity or vices, particularly in the context of contemporary politics and other topical issues.


Here is mine. I am talking about Gas Prices! 


Gas Prices

I think gas prices should go up by 20 dollars a litre. Yes! It is so cheap now days for everyone and I think you should be charged 20 dollars for one litre if you have a small car and 200 dollars a litre for big cars or even trucks! It’s so ridiculous how it’s so cheap. 5 dollars for 5 litres are you serious? That is so cheap! It should be more expensive. The government pay way too much money to families living in this area. If you are working at places such as PakNSave or the local dairy or even at an 2 dollar shop the government pays you loads of money so why spend it so little on huge litres of gas. Gas prices need to be more expensive and expensive so people can afford it. 300 dollars for 3 litres is really good! If your travelling on a road trip we pay you more since you have a lot of money to even afford to travel on a road trip. Also people who are illegally filling under the age of 18 should be charged $10. At least $10 since the government allows shops to sell children sweets, drinks and bakery foods every day after school. Also customers owning a car that is really cheap should be charged $100 for buying a cheap car. They get the cheapest gas prices since their cars are so small. They can afford way more than that. Personally I think that people who use diesel such as more expensive gas should be charged less mainly because wealthy people don’t get paid too much since the government had decided that. Well that’s my ideas on gas prices. Ugh! So ridiculous. 

Thanks for reading!
