You live in New Jersey where it takes an hr and a 5 mile drive to turn around to get to the other side of the road

I do agree with what youre saying to an extent. Gas prices are rising but most peoples incomes are not, so now more will be spent on fuel which means less will be spent/saved elsewhere. Businesses will eventualy feel that pinch too and start raising their prices too so it all has a snowball effect. We started seeing some of that in 08 with all the fuel surcharges as gas prices skyrocketed.
