Ignorance. By some of the posters. In terms of inflation, Gasoline is CHEAPER now than in the past 100 years. IF your paycheck rose in relation to the level of the price of gas, you would be EXTREMLY POOR in 2017. No, I do not work for any Oil Company or have anything to do with the Oil companies. Just have done extensive research and reading on the price of oil and gasoline in the past 100 years as it relates to inflation. A Gallon of bottled water is upwards of $10, yet people BUY it all the time and never complain. Doug

In 1971 gas in my town was 30 cents per gallon and I worked for a beginning level job just out of the Army: $3.70 per hour. Gas is now nearly 10 times that but that job sure doesn't pay $37.00 per hour.
