To The Daily Sun,
Hemmings Classic Car magazine of March 2019, has an article explaining the gas rationing stickers issued during WWII. They ran from an A to an X with A being the least and X being unlimited fuel purchase. Most people received an A which gave you 3-4 gallons a week. As your professional needs increased, you could get a C or a D which gave you more fuel per week. The X sticker was intended for traveling salesmen, doctors, etc.
Guess where they found 200 illegally obtained X stickers? Why of course, where else could the answer be? Congress! That's the answer. They found 200 illegally obtained unlimited gas stickers on congressmen's cars. It is nice to know some things never change. Nothing like leading from behind huh? It just doesn't make sense, does it?
