“Feel like they are spending...” How do you feel spendings? I’m sure the drivers know that they are spending more since they see the charges. No need to feel the spending. I thin the “feel” unhappy about spending more.
Poor logic and poor writing. IDIOCRACY turned out not to be satire.
Crappy language. They know they are paying more.
I suspect this was written to impact a female audience. And/or written by a female writer or editor.
