Average gasoline prices in the United States have surpassed $4 per gallon, marking a significant milestone in rising energy costs. This increase is driven by a combination of surging global crude oil prices and tightening supply. The price hike is being felt across the nation, impacting household budgets and contributing to broader inflationary concerns within the economy. As fuel costs continue to climb, analysts are observing the potential long-term effects on consumer spending and the transportation sector during this period of market volatility.

Seriously though, it's just a minor inconvenience compared to the suffering they are bringing to Iran.
Gas is almost $6 per gallon in California. "Average" prices factor in flyover states, welfare red states, the biblethumpin' south- while MOST of us are paying WELL over $4 per gallon.
The Americans are more afraid of fuel prices than the Iranians are afraid of death, this is why they will lose.
Ironic, that in pursuit of "liberal tears" it is the drill babies still driving gas guzzling SUVs who cry the most…
The president’s supporters have Trump Derangement Syndrome. They’ll defend anything he does even as it destroys the country.
