1976 was when I got my licence and i paid about .57/gal of gas. In 1999 I can remember getting gas for just under a $1/gal!
I think it's because gas has basically doubled in price in this area in 5 short years that we are feeling it and are upset.
But we also pay $2.00 for a 24oz bottle of designer water (or $10/gal). Gatorade is $5.00/gal(avg). And let's consider what a
gallon of gas would be compared to the price vs one's pay wages in 1920 to now:
$10.00 a gallon (choke!). Imagine that and then say to yourself....$2.00/gal ain't so bad!
