The other 48 states live life on the edge, we can pump our own gas. Crazy, I know. What can I say, I'm a risk taker.
It used to be like that everywhere but these states are the only ones that made laws (with safety justifications) back the 1950s. Now changing the law would be political suicide because it has become a jobs issue. Get rid of the law and gas stations won't need to employ the attendants anymore. For this reason no politician would ever try to change the law.

I live in a town that requires full service and it's weird.
