An organic limit? No. But I do think that there is a tipping point after which the harm done to society by these prices becomes too hard to absorb.

The question has more to do with how severe a jolt the economy/social fabric can take, and how quickly it can take that jolt without being radically affected.

If gas prices outpaced America's ability to adapt, then we would see chaos.

So, I'm wondering what the current outer limit would be.
