Well, as gas goes up look at the bright side; Gas has been too cheap for too long!
1) not nearly as many drivers - not as much smog (if you believe that is the cause)
2) Commuting becomes too expensive - less sprawl inner city (dilapidated) Real Estate values go up
3) Drive by shooting will decrease - or change to bike by shootings

5) Vacation Destinations, return to vacation destinations
6) ever see Mad Max?
7) Public Transportation may finally turn a profit

8) consumerism... may get a "checking" from being allow to run amok for decades.
