Someone has made a graph of gasoline prices since 1979 — not only that, there’s a separate line for the price of gas adjusted for inflation.
Most interesting; the price of gas, adjusted for inflation, appears to be lower now than it’s height in ‘79-’80 (on this graph).
I realize the folly of accepting at face value statements made on the internet, but by the same token, from what I know of the inexorable progress of inflation, the graph seems quite reasonable.
