I've never understood the obsession with gas prices. At most, I'm using 20 gallons a week.
Because other people and businesses use a lot more of it, so it matters a whole hell of a lot to them.
This is akin to someone living on the Southside of Chicago and suggesting it's totally safe because they haven't been shot.

Every product that makes it to a shelf or gets delivered to your door required gas or diesel to do so. Even if the fancy Amazon EV was the final delivery vehicle, the product only made it to the distribution center on a diesel 18 wheeler. The freight trains run on diesel as well. Not to mention the cost of running heavy machinery or farm equipment which is all gas or diesel based.
All true but unfortunately the prices of most products don’t track in lockstep with fuel prices.
There’s a certain amount some products will sell for and sellers are used to getting what they get now, so it’s a new baseline.
More affordable fuel is a good thing but the trickle down price upswings never seem to be offset when the fuel costs go back down.
